A Note From Your Agent:

Happy Spring All!

It’s crazy to think we’re almost already a month into Spring 2024. The winter programming is coming to a close as we’re wrapping up the Farmers Market Education Program this month. We had great attendance at the Cattle Grading program on April 9th at the stockyards.  It was our first time hosting it in Fleming County. Special thanks to Jim Akers and Farmers Stockyards.

We’re looking forward to the Quality Hay Production Field Day on May 10th, 2024. More info can be found in this newsletter. We hope that you can make it!

As always, if you have any questions or suggestions for programming, please let me know.
