We had a great Sewing Camp today at the Education Building! Thanks to Kathy Hagler, Klinda Rath, (4-H intern) Claire Walston, and agent Bridgett Martin, these students learned some basic sewing skills and were able to take home some spectacular “burrito” 4-H pillow cases.

Are you a producer that is catching on to cost savings and benefits of grazing more intensively and stockpiling forages to utilize later in the fall/winter? In order to capitalize on this concept, temporary fencing is a must! Come learn with us how virtual fencing could be a tool to consider in your grazing management strategies. NRSC Grazing Specialist, Jeremy Huff will take us through a crash course on this topic and share some great information that he has learned doing extensive research on virtual fencing. There will also be a representative from one of the leading manufacturers of virtual fencing systems to educate us on how their system works. We will also hear from a producer in Polk County that has recently incorporated this strategy into his grazing program. We will be providing dinner so please RSVP by May 11th in order to get a good head count. I hope to see you there!
