Fairs and events - 2018 calendar
Throughout the year, we have staff on hand at public events, fairs and community farmers markets to answer questions about noxious weeds. We also provide workshops and presentations by request throughout the year. Contact our office to request a presentation or a weed information booth for your community event. Note: Farmers Market dates will be scheduled later in the spring. We will typically be at each market just one day during the season.
