Young Farmers Director Lauren Jarrett has released a February update for the Chattooga County Young Farmers Association, highlighting upcoming educational programs and certification opportunities for area agricultural producers.

The group’s program on Catching Honeybee Swarms with Brandon Ray, North Region Ag Education Director, originally planned for February 5, has been rescheduled due to a weather-related schedule change for the presenter. The meeting and educational class will now be held on Thursday, February 12th at 7:00 PM at the Chattooga Ag Center, with a meal provided. Those planning to attend are asked to RSVP by Tuesday, February 10th to help organizers get an accurate meal count.
