(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.
