Winter Weather Advisory
As a friendly reminder, as winter sets in, please locate your winter outdoor faucet covers and put them in place to protect the outdoor faucets from freezing temperatures. If you need a faucet cover, you may pick one up in the lobby of the Annex building. Additionally, if you want to protect your water hoses, it is also beneficial to disconnect them from the hose bibs and drain all the water from the hoses. This prevents the hoses from freezing and cracking during freezing temps. Thank you for helping with these preventative measures to protect the campus and homes from freeze damage. Stay warm!
Farming Produce
We have naturally grown (without pesticides or herbicides) produce for sale from our very own land and greenhouse. Our fall harvest includes tomatoes $2/lb and sweet potatoes $1.50/lb. Place your order by calling/texting Eric Waller at 903-331-3358.
Farming Resource Class
Everyone is invited to next month's Farming Resource Class on Tuesday, Dec. 16 at 6:30 PM in the Chapel. Our speaker is Greg Mandreger, who will be talking about a different kind of harvest. Greg will be sharing practical tips and amazing stories from his decades of hunting experiences. Invite your neighbors! Questions? Please contact Eric Waller for details.
