This week on Backyard Farmer, we tackle viewer questions and take a colorful field trip to Lincoln's Sunken Gardens, where 2026's design pulls inspiration from quilts at UNL's International Quilt Museum in honor of America's 250th anniversary.

Backyard Farmer (7/16/26)

Backyard Farmer panelists offer gardening and turf strategies throughout the growing season, so if you've got a problem or question in your garden, check Backyard Farmer first. Backyard Farmer began on what was then KFOR-TV, channel 12 in Lincoln, in the Fall of 1953. The program switched to the new University of Nebraska Television station, KUON-TV, in the Spring of 1954. As the Nebraska Educational Television Network was built, Backyard Farmer's reach expanded to all Nebraskans, and since 1998 has been available online at byf.unl.edu.
