Lawns and Weeds

Join us in our final program in the Garden Problem Solving Series, Fall Lawn Care presented by Sedgwick County K-State Research and Extension Horticulture Agent, Matthew McKernan.

Please take a couple of minutes to complete our post-programmatic survey.  The results of this survey help show our stakeholders that this free program was well worth the efforts: https://kstate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_a5yjG6wwhdt3Q3A

Shawnee County Extension Master Gardener Kevin Siek talks to us about plants that have become invasive in Northeast Kansas. If you watch this recording, please take just 1 minute to fill out our survey: https://kstate.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_bJf4sQBD1oPLVno

This survey helps to ensure we can continue to offer free, quality programming in the future.
