It's that time again! 🐝📚

Agricultural Literacy Week 2026 is coming up, and we are super excited to have expanded the program this year! 200 classrooms means we need A LOT of volunteers!

Ag Literacy Week is super important in teaching students about agriculture.

This year's book is "The Dog Who Saved the Bees" and teaches students the importance of our pollinators. The book is also a local Maryland book!

Who's ready to read? Sign up here: bit.ly/AgLit26

👩‍🌾 👨‍🌾Attention Maryland Farmers! As winter approaches, remember that the winter ban on spreading manure and other nutrient sources starts on December 16, 2024. You can resume spreading on March 1, 2025, as long as fields aren’t saturated, snow-covered, or hard-frozen. This helps us safeguard our local waterways from runoff. If you have any questions or need guidance regarding storage or regulations, don’t hesitate to reach out to your regional nutrient management specialist. For additional information, please visit https://bit.ly/4eZNquj. Stay safe and keep our environment healthy!
