Strengthening nutrition readiness is essential to supporting the overall well-being and resilience of military families. This webinar will describe an important shift from viewing food security solely as economic access toward a more comprehensive, military nutrition readiness framework grounded in three pillars: physical access to food, economic access to food, and nutrition quality. The speakers will explore how nutrition readiness requires financial resources as well as geographic access to food and the availability of foods that support optimal health and human performance.
Building on this understanding, attendees will gain an overview of federal nutrition assistance programs and Cooperative Extension education programs that support both nutrition and financial readiness. Further, attendees will hear from an installation community partnership addressing nutrition readiness at Fort Drum, enabling more effective referrals and connections to resources.

Weeds – everyone has them and needs to have a sound strategy to control them. Other than land rent and fertilizer costs, one of the most challenging parts of a crop enterprise budget is determining what approach to take for weed management. A two-pass system has become mandatory to control waterhemp when growing soybeans. However when it comes to corn, farmers in East-Central and Northeastern Wisconsin are split between one-pass and two-pass systems. Dan Smith, Statewide Weed Science Outreach Specialist, will address the advantages and disadvantages between these two approaches and identify the factors farmers need to consider when making these decisions. Dan will also discuss other weed species that continue to be problematic and how we can limit their overall impact on your bottom line. A successful weed management program includes timing cover crop termination correctly and whether Mother Nature provides sufficient rainfall to activate spray products in the field.

The 10-session live, online Green Thumb Gardening class series will help you bring color to your fall garden and prepare you for a successful spring. Classes cover a wide range of autumn-themed and other topics from ornamental grasses, to bulbs, to getting the garden ready for winter.
All gardeners from the novice to the experienced are welcome. You can take the whole series for a discounted price ($100) or select individual classes ($12).
Spring Bulbs: This talk goes beyond tulips and daffodils (although they are covered as well) and focuses on perennial bulb and corm species that don’t get as much attention but are stellar garden plants, such as crocus, Puschkinia, Chionodoxa, and alliums. We will also discuss deterring critters that eat bulbs and general bulb care.

Woody Plants for Fall Fireworks: Choosing Deciduous Woody Plants With Great Fall Color: People tend to think about maple trees when they think about fall color, and beautiful maples certainly abound.
