Spring can be a busy time of year for both gardeners and producers. In this spring edition of the Barren County’s Farm & Garden Newsletter, you will find friendly reminders of seasonal and timely tips to perform in and around the farm and garden. “Around the Garden” highlights strategies for growing great tasting home-grown tomatoes in the garden, while the “In the Field” section discusses tips for beef producers on making a wise purchase for their next herd sire. This newsletter also includes promotional flyers for the Totally Tomato Class, the Pollinator Paradise Garden Series, and the Barren County Ag Festival which allows Barren County citizens the
opportunity to help celebrate the vital role of agriculture in the best place to live in rural America. Page 7 also lists other upcoming Extension programs relating to both agriculture and horticulture that will take place during April and May. Lastly, to help celebrate Beef Month in May, the Food and Nutrition page features a tasty recipe for ribeye steaks! If you have suggestions of future feature articles, please forward them along to us. We want to help you grow ideas! Also, check out other upcoming Barren County Extension happenings listed on our website and Facebook pages.
