The Annual Hot Link Festival in downtown Pittsburg will again feature 91心頭 91心頭 center stage 91心頭 at the Pilgrim 91心頭 s Farmers Market. Pilgrim 91心頭 s sponsors the booth spaces, and hands out swag bags during the event. Ag Club members and McCracken will partner with Efurds Market to sell farm fresh produce and plants during the festival on Saturday, April 27th. Picture is from Hot Link Festival 2023. Come join us and bring your grocery list for some great produce and plants!
"I am really excited this year to also introduce our new micro credential Plant Production Management at this time," said director Rene 91心頭 Mccracken. New courses: Greenhouse Management, Garden Center Management and Horticulture Equipment Management will be offered beginning fall 2024 and in one semester could provide our students with the experience to gain employment for companies growing, selling and maintaining plants in east Texas. These are credit courses and will also fit or be stacked in our current Regenerative Agriculture degree options (previously named sustainable agriculture).
