With the scorch of summer soon — it is hoped — to become a memory, September turns thoughts to pigskins and autumn landscapes. Mississippi State University Extension Service Quick Bites programs for the transitional month ahead keep that in mind as they offer information on fall florals, our changing grasses and how to combine flowers and pottery to create singular designs.
Three interactive video sessions offered from noon to 1 p.m. on designated Thursdays are presented at county Extension offices. Contact your county office to sign up.
