Where does sugar come from? Have you ever thought about where sugar comes from? If you think it comes from the grocery store, you’re right, but before it’s on the grocery shelves. It’s in plants, that are grown on farms throughout our county and surrounding area. 2024 Special Agronomy Project: Sugar Beets are a root crop. Western Sugar is helping with the 4-H display. Farmers, please join us in displaying our local crops.
