UL - In retired elementary teacher Glenda Balliviero’s small world beside busy Johnston Street, it’s not THE sun but “Mr. Sun.”

She calls the arrangement between the LSU AgCenter and the University of Louisiana at Lafayette that makes a children’s garden possible “nice.”

The children’s garden at the (University of Louisiana ) Ira Nelson Horticulture Center is among the demonstration gardens tended by Master Gardeners, men and women who study applied gardening through the LSU AgCenter’s extension program.

Entrance to the children’s garden is in the 2200 block of Johnston Street, across from Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church. The garden is open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. daily.
