With Spring around the corner, it is now time to start preparation for your spring gardens!

The Horticulture Committee of Austin County would like to invite everyone to the Small Farms and Vegetable Conference. There will be a variety of local vendors on site to assist with any questions or needs you might and also provide the latest up to date technology and products available. In addition, this year the Conference will offer topics covering a wide range of areas including: soil preparation, mole and gopher control, Laws and Regulations update, Bee Keeping, and spring time vegetables. If you are a private applicator in need of CEU hours, you can also obtain 5 CEU credits by attending the Conference.

The program is set for Friday, February 22, 2019 at the Cat Spring Ag Hall, in Cat Spring, Texas. Registration will begin at 8:30am and the program will begin at 9:00 am. There is a registration fee of $30.00 payable at the door.
