INSTITUTE, W.Va. – West Virginia State University (WVSU) Extension Service has announced the spring schedule of its monthly Ag Talk Tuesday series.

• February 9: Mature Tree Care
• March 9: Farm Accounting
• April 13: Butchery Demonstration

“We're continuing the series into 2021 because we're excited for the opportunity to reach every county in the state with much greater ease through video and audio technology,” said WVSU Extension Agent Kristie Martin. “We're always open to requests and will do our best to give our viewers and listeners access to various perspectives and experiences from West Virginia agriculture to meet their interests and needs.”

The free monthly series began in July and takes place the second Tuesday of each month. Participants register to join the live event and can submit questions ahead of time through the WVSU Extension Service Facebook and Twitter platforms or via email.

To participate in the Zoom sessions, register at wvstateu.edu/ANR. Registering once provides access to the full schedule of sessions.

While live questions will be answered during each session, participants are also encouraged to submit questions, as well as ideas for future topics, ahead of time to extension@wvstateu.edu.
