    The Great Sunflower Project

    Here is a great way to get some free sunflowers for your garden with very little effort.  The Great Sunflower Project will send you a packet of Lemon Queen sunflower seeds if you sign up to volunteer.  The nice thing about these sunflowers, they can also grow in a pot on your deck or patio so one doesn’t need a large garden to plant them.  In exchange for the flower seeds, they are asking volunteers to collect some data on the number of bees that visit your flowers…..
