The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service in Hopkins County have developed a series of educational programs to assist new landowners with the concept of agriculture production and rural living. The New Landowner Seminar Series is designed with you in mind, providing opportunities to hear from leading experts and successful producers in the field of agriculture on what it takes to start, manage, and maintain your own agricultural enterprise and effectively manage your natural resources.
You will hear from AgriLife Extension Specialists, County Extension Agents, and others on concepts related to Wildlife Management, Pond Management, Forage Production, Weed & Brush Control, Horticulture Production, Honey Bees, Livestock Production, Rural Laws and Codes, and much more.
Networking is another great opportunity provided through this program series; bringing landowners from the four-county-area together to talk about plans, successes, and challenges in an effort to help one another.
The series is schedule to start September 3, 2021, at the Hopkins County Extension Office. The series has a cost of $20 per person, $25 per couple.
Please register by August 27, 2021 by calling the Hopkins County Extension Office at 903-885-3443 or email Mario Villarino at [email protected] (a minimum of five attendees are required for the series to make).
