Pesticide Disposal Program for farmers on March 5 From Nick Roy Adair County Extension Agent for Agriculture & Natural Resources The Adair County Cooperative Extension Service will host a free pesticide disposal event on March 5, offering farmers a safe and convenient way to discard unused or unwanted agricultural chemicals. The event will run from from 9amCT to 11amCT on Thursday, March 5, 2026, at the Adair County Extension Office, 409 Fairground Street, Columbia, KY. The disposal program is designed to help local producers manage hazardous materials responsibly while reducing the environmental risks associated with improper chemical storage or dumping. More importantly, removing these unwanted pesticides from farmsteads prevent the possibility of accidental exposure to children, other family members, and workers. Farmers are invited to bring a variety of accepted materials, including liquid or dry pesticides, herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides. These items will be handled and disposed of safely at no cost. However, several materials will not be accepted, including paint or aerosol cans, fuels, solvents, fertilizer, and flammable materials. For more information, contact the Adair County Cooperative Extension Service at (270) 384-2317. 2026-02-28 09:36:55 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Adair Co. Extension Service
MCMS students win grant to improve dental health Edmonton, KY - Two Metcalfe County Middle School students have been awarded $1,000 in grant funds to help improve dental health in our community. Lucy Blythe and Lilly Billingsley, 7th-grade students at Metcalfe County Middle School, earned second place in the Drs. Mody Make a Difference Service Learning Competition, which is offered through The Center for Gifted Studies at WKU. Lucy and Lilly chose February to start their project as part of National Children's Dental Health Month. They hope to raise awareness of the importance of good oral hygiene by distributing dental care kits and inviting a dentist to speak to students during a special assembly in March. "We are extremely proud of Lucy and Lilly for undertaking this leadership project for our Gifted and Talented program," Principal Jenny Stotts-Lundy said. "Proper dental health care can be a struggle for families who live in rural communities. This grant will ensure that every student at Metcalfe County Middle School has the supplies they need to develop and maintain good dental health habits." Drs. Bharat and Bharati Mody established The Mody Endowed Fund in Service Learning at The Center for Gifted Studies to honor their lifelong dedication to community service and to inspire high-achieving students to give back. As award recipients, Lucy and Lilly will be required to provide a written report on the impact of their work and what they learned. 2026-02-28 09:32:48 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Education
Meatballs are beloved in every culture Cooks around the world and throughout the ages searched for inspiration for dinner and few things have been more inspirational than the meatball. The earliest documented evidence of meatball-like dishes dates to ancient times, indeed. In ancient Persia (modern-day Iran), mama cooked up spiced ground lamb with rice and other grains in little balls to create the kofta -- and it was an idea that spread around the world through trade and conquests.
