Starting Seeds Indoor Workshop - March 7th at 6:00
p.m. Whether you are using seeds bought from a nursery catalogue,
or seeds collected from your own garden, starting seeds indoors
can be a rewarding investment of time and resources. Plants
grown by seed indoors in a greenhouse, cold frame, or under
grow lights inside a home, offer the benefits of early maturing
plants and harvests, better weed competition, healthier less
vulnerable plants to pests, and less manual thinning of plants.
Seed collecting, storing, and starting, is both and art and
a science. To be successful, it is important to have the right
knowledge and tools to perform the job in a precise, diligent,
and scheduled manner. For more information call the Pulaski
County Extension Office at 573-774-6177.

12th. Seating is limited so make your reservation today!
**Please note** The Chamber of Commerce is excited to
have such a large number of its members attend monthly luncheons.
Unfortunately, due to the large number of last minute Chamber
luncheon attendees a policy has been put into place by the
Chamber Board of Directors. This policy started in APRIL 2005;
anyone who responds after the R.s.v.p. cut-off time (9:00
a.m. the Tuesday before the luncheon) or shows up without
an R.s.v.p. may be charged an additional $10. If an R.s.v.p.
is received and they do not attend the luncheon there may
be a $10 charged for the meal. The decision was made to charge
this amount to compensate our Chamber member restaurants for
the last minute adjusts they must make to their menus.
