Despite the frigid temperatures we've been experiencing lately, there is hope for spring, and with it gardening.
Healthy soil is vital for gardening success, and Extension Agent Jason Graves can help you get your garden soil in shape for the growing season.
Graves is offering Soil Health in the Home Garden, a webinar via Zoom scheduled for 6 p.m. Tuesday.
