A Note From Your Agent:

As we are nearing fall we are finalizing details on our Fall and Winter educational programming. You will find several upcoming educational opportunities throughout this newsletter.

We are also offering free hay sampling and testing for the East Kentucky Hay Contest again this year. I know a lot of folks say their hay is not good enough to be in a contest but we are most interested in you knowing what nutrients are in your hay so that you are making informed decisions when feeding livestock this winter. And this year we all struggled to get hay cut and stored in a timely manner so of all years this may be the year you definitely want to test it. If you want to sign up you can use the QR code on the flyer in this issue, or call us at the office (606) 845-4641. We will come out sometime in the month of September to take samples.

We hop to see you at an upcoming program or event!
