If you have those huge grubs in your compost or yard, Molly could use as many as you can spare for children’s programs and camps this summer. They are a great example when learning lifecycles. Please bring them by the Extension Office at 3355 Cherry Ridge, room 212, if you have extras to spare! |

Take the 40 Gallon Challenge! Dotty Woodson, water conservation program specialist from Dallas Texas A&M AgriLife Extension made this suggestion at our recent Irrigation Efficiency Specialist training.
