ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Have you checked out "The Gwynne" at FSR yet?!

The Gwynne Conservation Area is a unique area at the Farm Science Review (FSR) that spotlights conservation and natural resources. During The Show Sept 20-22, you can learn more about cool things happening in our 67 acres of woodlands, prairies, tree plantations, bird boxes, pond area, wetlands research, and honey bee habitat. We’ve even got a bat house and a butterfly garden!

Our CFAES professionals are studying soils, habitats, and plants that you might have in your own backyard, community garden, or a farm or wooded area near you. Lots of hands-on projects that go on throughout the year will be on full display this week; and there are many educational sessions held at The Gwynne too. Come to FSR in London, Ohio, take a short shuttle ride over to The Gwynne, and learn SO much more!
