Ticks are everywhere. Come and learn about the different tick species in Illinois and where they are located throughout the state on September 20. Extension Specialist Dr. Teresa Steckler will discuss tick-borne diseases of humans, livestock, and pets, as well as where you can find ticks in the environment and how to protect yourself and your pets from ticks.

This workshop will discuss various common and not-so-common types of winter squash--including acorn, buttercup, butternut, hubbard, sweet dumpling and spaghetti squash. As well as how to select and store winter squash to extend its shelf life so you can enjoy it months after harvesting. Join us on September 25!
