May 9, 2016 |
It’s that beautiful time of year…Spring!
The Boundary Soil Conservation District and Farm
Bureau are once again offering their free
community farm tour. This year’s event will
start with a video to learn about the Kootenai
Tribe’s Fish Hatchery, followed by releasing
baby sturgeon into the Kootenai River.
Then we will head north and have a lesson on the
dike system. Next we will go to Houck Farms
located on Farm to Market Road, and learn more
about farming, have a tour of their new
operational flour mill, and have a better
understanding of the meaning of Farm to Market.
We will also have a presentation of last year’s
fire devastation and plans for restoration.
Lunch will be provided along the way. We will
meet at the Boundary County Fairgrounds at 8:00
a.m. The program starts at 8:30 a.m. sharp on
Friday, May 20. The bus should return by 4:00
p.m. if not sooner. Seating is limited. Please
RSVP at 208-267-3340 extension 107, or
208-267-5502. |
