A television show produced by N.C. State University has won a regional Emmy Award.

The team that produced "In the Garden with Bryce Lane" received the award over the weekend at the 25th Annual Midsouth Regional Emmy Awards.

The show is produced by NCSU's Communication Services department.  Bryce Lane, host and instructor in N.C. State’s Horticultural Science Department, brings more than 28 years of teaching experience to television.

The production team includes videographer/editor Simone Keith, producer Sonya Williams Harris and graphic artist John Vanaman. The show airs Saturdays at noon on UNC-TV.

Williams Harris said In the Garden won the award for a show about gardening with children. The episode, from the show’s seventh season, features Lane’s grandchildren working in his home garden, as well as students from Raleigh’s Ravenscroft School and 4-H horticulture specialist Liz Driscoll demonstrating fun gardening activities for children.

In the Garden, beginning its ninth season this year, is the only show of its kind offered in North Carolina. The show is both a television series and a horticulture distance education course. Viewers can register for the course to earn college credit.
