Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service provides programs, tools, and resources
that teach people how to improve agriculture and food production, advance health
practices, protect the environment, strengthen our communities, and enrich youth. The Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service is a unique education agency with a statewide
network of professional educators, trained volunteers, and county offices. Some of our major efforts are in
mitigating drought impacts; conserving water use in homes, landscapes, and production
agriculture; improving emergency management; enhancing food security; and protecting
human health through education about diet, exercise, and disease prevention and management. AgriLife Extension demonstrates the latest technology and best practices to improve the
state’s food and fiber system, which serves all Texas consumers and contributes nine percent of the gross domestic product. Texas 4-H, our primary youth program, engages some 600,000 youth every year in learning projects, leadership development, and community service.

Yesterday at the Arbor Day Tree Workshop we met Dr. Jessie Farris, a new hire for the city of Burleson. She is a Forester. She showed us the dying Ash trees at the park that have Ash Beetles. She has set up traps in the trees and will be assessing whether there is a chance to save them with Chemical treatments. If you are looking for a new tree for your back yard, I would suggest staying away from Ash Trees at this time. https://www.facebook.com/share/1MCgwricK4/?mibextid=wwXIfr

Today is Texas Arbor Day! Time to plant a tree. Why November? Unlike National Arbor Day in the spring, Texas celebrates in the fall because cooler temperatures, reduced water stress, and winter precipitation give newly planted trees several months to establish deep root systems before the hot Texas summer. Wants some tips for planting trees? Come join us in the morning for a tree planting demonstration.

Johnson County Master Gardeners are at Cleburne H-E-B today until 3 pm to answer your questions about Texas Native Plants. Did you know October is the best month to plant hardy Texas native plants that return every year? Planting in the fall gives plant roots a chance to establish in the cool of the year before summer heat arrives. We are impressed that H-E-B has at least 22 varieties of Texas natives in stock today: TX Lantana, Azure Sage, Snakeherb, Rudbeckia, Blanketflower, Rock Rose, Big Bluestem, Little Bluestem, Turk’s Cap, Gulf Muhly grass, American Beautyberry, White Sage (native artemisia), Inland Sea Oats, Texas Sedge, Standing Cypress, Scarlet Sage, Autumn Sage, Texas Star Hibiscus, Rock Penstemon, Mealy Blue Sage, Flame Acanthus and Indian Grass. All these plants are part of a healthy ecosystem.
Our volunteers will return for the final day of volunteering tomorrow, Sunday, October 25th from noon-4 pm. Please stop by their booth because they will be happy to share their plant knowledge.
