The Glascock County Cooperative Extension Office extends lifelong learning to Georgia citizens through unbiased, research-based education.
We offer services in the following areas:
Extension Publications
-
Vegetable Garden Calendar (C 943) The recommendations in this circular are based on long-term average dates of the last killing frost in the spring and first killing frost in the fall. Every year does not conform to the "average," so you should use your own judgment about advancing or delaying the time for each job, depending on weather conditions.
-
Native Plants for Georgia Part I: Trees, Shrubs and Woody Vines (B 987) This publication focuses on native trees, shrubs and woody vines for Georgia. It is not our intent to describe all native species — just those available in the nursery trade and those that the authors feel have potential for nursery production and landscape use. Rare or endangered species are not described. Information on each plant is provided according to the following categories: Common Name(s)/Botanical Name/Family, Characteristics, Landscape Uses, Size, Zones and Habitat.
-
Time Management: 10 Strategies for Better Time Management (C 1042) Learn 10 strategies for better time management, including knowing how to spend your time, setting priorities, using planning tools, getting organized, scheduling, delegating, and avoiding procrastinating, wasting time, and multitasking.

We will learn basic care and knowledge of horses, such as parts of a horse, grooming, tack, and feeding. We will meet at the horse field, so wear boots or any closed-toe shoes you don't mind getting dirty. The horse club will meet one Saturday per month in September, October, November, January, February, March, and May, except for cancellations due to inclement weather. Before attending a Horse Club meeting, participants must pay the $10.00 annual registration fee and return a signed waiver to uge3245f@uga.edu and wbg1@uga.edu.
