Abstract
Most of Nebraska's population resides in the urban centers of eastern Nebraska. Traditionally, however, the Cooperative Extension Service has catered to the rural populations of the state. Now, it is imperative that the public and the legislative representatives from these urban areas learn that the research and outreach programs of the university also serve them. A Festival of Color was the vehicle for educators and aides, Natural Resource District personnel, and other professionals, including government officials. Both professionals and the general public responded enthusiastically to the Festival's innovative use of the research site. The educational objective was to creatively answer questions on low input landscapes; their design and maintenance. Information was presented by Extension Specialists and Assistants, Master Gardeners, Natural Resource District personnel, Dept. of Environmental Quality, State Energy Office, and Nebraska Association of Nurserymen.
