Manatee County Fair Starts Today

Come out to the Manatee County Fair.  Today is opening day at 5:00pm.  We have worked hard to create an interactive experience in the UF/IFAS Extension Booth.  The Florida Yards & Neighborhoods Program has a doll house landscape demonstration highlighting the 9 principles for Florida-Friendly Yards.  Besure to look for the rain barrel, compost bin, pervious drive and walk ways, wildlife and beneficial insects.  Hope to see you at the Fair.
