UNL Extension Meetings will Provide Information on CSAs, Farmer's Markets
(KTNC) - A series of meetings in Falls City this month may be of interest to local gardeners looking to make some extra money.
University of Nebraska Extension is sponsoring the meetings. Richardson County Extension Educator Lindsay Chichester says Nemaha County Extension Educator Gary Lesoing (less-OH-ing) and Vaughn Hammond with the Kimmel Education and Research Center will provide information about Community Supported Agriculture and Farmer’s Markets.

Four meetings are planned, all at the Falls City Library and Arts Center. The first session will be on Thursday, November 8, with other sessions will be held on Thursday, November 15, Tuesday, November 20 and Tuesday, November 27.
