The University of Illinois Extension publishes a quarterly newsletter and the Fayette County SWCD a bi-monthly and since expenses are tight for both organizations we are combining our efforts to reach as many people as possible. Below is a link to the Ag Quarterly Newsletter please check it out!

If you have any questions about anything that you read in the Ag Quarterly please call 618-283-2753.

If you know of anyone that would like to receive an email alert when updates are made to the website please send me an email and I would be happy to add them to the reminder list.
