Spring is really here and one of my favorite spring activities is planting and improving my flower beds, obviously. If these flower beds are not planted or cared for correctly, they will not survive. One of the most disappointing things to any gardener is when their plants die!
Thank you for signing up for a Take & Make Kit. Registration is now closed. We will putting the kits together in the next few days. Please remember to stop by the office between April 15th and 30th to pick up your kits.
As the planting season approaches, producers are gearing up to apply pesticides. However, before starting your pesticide application there are two important things to keep in mind: pesticide efficacy and spray drift management.
The weather is finally warming up more and we can get out into our landscapes again. As we get outside more, we will find one plant that is having a great year, Henbit. This purple blooming weed shows its ugly face very early in the spring. This is the weed that will cover fields with large expanses of purple blossoms. It is also quite prevalent in our lawns and gardens.
