11/21/2025 From Trish Coons: Agrilife Project Normal workdays are 2nd and 4th Saturdays. However, if your schedule doesn’t allow you to work those days, you can still participate by volunteering on your own time while still gaining credit hours. A current “List of Chores” can be found in the mailboxes located at the compost bins and in the 4H Grassbed area. Pick any general maintenance chore that best suits your effort level.  If you are interested in spending some time at this project site and happen to have any questions, please contact Trish Coons at [email protected] or text 830-322-2200.   https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C084AABAD2DAB9-58295514-agrilife
