Horticulture

Gardening and landscaping is considered to be a hobby and an important source of food in Duchesne County. An estimated 80 percent of the 3500 households in the county raise gardens. In many families the home garden supplies the major portion of the family vegetable supply. The public relies upon USU Extension Service for gardening and horticulture information.
