HARDIN COUNTY–The Hardin County OSU Extension Master Gardener Volunteers will host a Master Gardener Volunteer training course for new Master Gardener Volunteers beginning February 13.
The Ohio State University Extension Master Gardener Volunteer Program provides intensive training in horticulture to interested Ohio residents who then volunteer their time assisting with educational programs and activities for Ohio residents through their local Ohio State University Extension county office. Volunteers are not required to have gardening skills or knowledge; but a passion for learning about gardening and sharing this knowledge with others is a must.
FINDLAY--Since children will have a day off from school on Martin Luther King, Jr Day, January 16, it could be a great time for them to visit a park, hike a trail, and look for animals.
Litzenberg Memorial Woods, Gatehouse. 1:00 p.m.
Families with children ages 5 and up. Free; registration is not required.
Finding fresh or frozen animal tracks is a fun activity that provides a clue to the kind of animals being active during winter. Maybe the animals will be seen. That would be exciting for them.
