AgriLife introduces new ‘Producer’s Gathering’
The first “Producer’s Gathering” will be at 6 p.m. on May 2 in Bowie at the Bowie Community Center, 413 Pelham Street.
This is a new event to invite and encourage those in the cattle industry to attend and learn from some of the best presenters and current topics that are affecting you, the cattle producer. If you raise five or 5,000 head, this program is meant for you, said County AgriLife Extension Agent Justin Hansard.
This will be a sit-down steak dinner for cattlemen and their spouses for $20/person. The guest speaker is Kyle Weldon who helped write and publish, “Five Strands: A Landowner’s Guide to Fence Law in Texas,” discussing open and closed range law in Texas. He is currently a lawyer with Brown Pruitt in Fort Worth. Read the full story in the weekend News.
Due to high lake levels at Lake Amon G. Carter, the Jim Bowie Days Association organizers announced Friday the tournament has been postponed and a new date will be named soon.
Texas AgriLife Extension will host a July workshop on July 26, Preserving the Harvest, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the United Presbyterian Church of Montague County, 300 W. Nelson.
This four-part series will teach and review the food preservation processes including water bathing, pickling, dehydrating and pressure canning. This program will have both education and hands-on activities with take-home practice.
Seating is limited so call the extension office to register at 894-4831.
The 2025 Pioneer Court will be led by Joan Cantwell as the pioneer queen, with Duchesses Bill Ann Jones and Sue Swint.
A coronation of the court will be at 2:30 p.m. on June 27 at the Bowie Community Center. The public is invited to attend the crowning followed by a reception hosted by the Amity Club of Bowie.
Meet the ladies of the Pioneer Court in the Thursday Bowie News. Coming next week the young ladies competing for Miss Jim Bowie Days and Little Miss.
