Connection between fawn, strange behaving Tabor doe?

Proof we live in one of the greatest places in the USA About: ACHS baseball gets field renovation To ColumbiaMagazine.com I would like to comment on the Adair County Baseball Field being voted one of the teams to be renovated. This is proof positive that we live in one of the greatest places in the USA. When the people of Adair County want something we all pull together to achieve it. It has been shown in all the money that has been raised for the Adair County Band and now for all the votes the baseball field received. We may be small in numbers but we are large in commitment to our community. Again, I am proud of Adair County and everyone that voted. s/Diane Benningfield 2009-06-20 13:27:44 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Lasagna Gardening: layering organic matter like Mother Nature By Barbara Armitage Adair County Garden Club. (270) 250-2979 No digging, no tilling, no weeding, no kidding! Lasagna gardening is a simple method of layering organic material just like Mother Nature would and letting the garden do the work for you. In the beginning... My fist garden was a disaster. I had a shovel, a hoe and a rake and I nearly had a heat stroke. Everything I knew about gardening could be summed up into one word "dig". I dug up the grass and weeds. Then I double-dug the soil 12 inches or more deep - raked and hoed until the soil was loose and smooth. All I grew in my garden were blisters, a sore back and a bumper crop of weeds.

The Adair Co. Garden Club offers By Barbara Armitage Every gardener knows that successful gardening begins with the soil and building good rich soil is only a matter of organics. The Adair County Garden Club is offering "chippings" to anyone who is interested in adding fresh organic material to their compost, existing gardens or for building a "Lasagna" style garden. Chippings are the result of grinding trees, branches or leaves - resulting in "mulch". Currently we have a branch/leaf mix of mulch available. This mixture is a good blend of both brown and green organic material that composts quickly. Chippings are available by the bucket, scoop, truck or trailer by appointment only. Donations accepted with all proceeds going to the Adair County Garden Club. Contact Barbara Armitage at (270) 250-2979 for more information. 2009-06-20 10:19:02 | Comments | Printable version
