2 Page 2 Sticking to the Basics When it Comes to Your Soil By: Alana Voss, Agricultural Educator As the weather changes, we can almost feel the electricity and excitement come back to our agricultural enthusiasts within the CWAS area as spring arrives. As we prepare for the spring planting of flowers, fruits and vegetables, grass, and field crops let s not over look the basics of caring for our soil. As I have sat in on the Master Gardener Class this winter, I am reminded of how important sticking to the basics truly is for growing any sort of crop or garden. It allows you to know the perfect spot for growing your crops. Your crops are very similar to the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Think of your crop as Goldilocks and it is looking for just the right spot to sit in not too high in ph, but yet not too low of a ph either. Your crop is looking for the just right spot for the ph in the soil. Then after finding the right spot your crop is looking for the perfect bowl of porridge to help it grow. Not too hot in nutrients, but also not too few of nutrients needed for the growth and production. Lastly, finding the perfect bed for your crop is all dependent on the amount of sunlight and water needed, and finally the number of days needed for the proper growth cycle of your crop. As you re preparing to plant your crop this spring keep in mind this childhood tale and look into what the basic needs are for your Goldilocks. Do you know what the preferred ph is for your perfect spot for your crop? What nutrients are needed for the perfect porridge for your plants to thrive? How about the perfect resting spot for your crop to grow this year? Remember to look into what the perfect spot is for your crops and also to pull your soil samples to help you achieve the perfect spot for your crops this year. The UW-Extension has the resources you need to research your plants needs and the information and Master Gardener s Flower Bulb Sale After the Kids Day Program, April 28th we might have some flower bulbs left over. These bulbs were donated by Florence Johnson. She has graciously said we could sell the remaining bulbs with profits going to the Master Gardeners organization. Prices will be determined after the April 28t event. We should have Canna, Dalia, Calla Lily and Zepher, (also called Rain Flower or Fairy lilies) left over. They will be sold May 1 to May 22 by calling Della Julseth , also at the May 23 General Meeting, or at the Hazel Street Farmers Market May 31st. See page 4 for planting instructions. We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses. ~Abraham Lincoln
3 Volume, Issue Page 3 WI Local Food Locator By: Alana Voss, Agricultural Educator Wouldn t it be nice if there was a free option to help point you in the direction of locally grown fresh produce and other locally made products? Or do you wish you had a free option to help advertise the products you grow or make? Now these options are available for your use and no longer a distant dream! I would like to introduce you to the UW-Extensions new tool the Wisconsin Local Food Locator. The Wisconsin Local Food Locator was created to help connect the rural local food producers to the local food consumers. By using this tool you are able to search by using the drop down boxes that specify specific farms, products, or counties. You are also able to fill out a form that will upload your information on to the Wisconsin Local Food Locator map. This can include your own farms, road side stands, or even your booths at the farmers markets. Don t be shy! Check out this great tool so you can get your hands on all the wonderfully grown produce and locally made products near you. Even better share what locally made products and locally grown produce you have to offer today!

7 Page 7 Unwanted! Jumping Worms! by Betty Conrad, Master Gardener Be on the lookout for this new soil invader. Jumping worms are a glossy gray color with a lighter colored band that completely circles their body. They trash wildly and can shed their tails in defense. They are easy to find because they stay on te soil surface. Jumping worms are harmful because they change the soil in a negative way, more than any other earthworm we have in Wisconsin, by producing a unique grainy soil which may keep plants from growing. Jumping worms produce young (cocoons) without a moth, so just one worm can create a population. The adult dies in winter while their young service in the cocoons and hatch in the spring. These cocoons are tiny and can t be seen with the naked eye. You won t see jumping worm adults until late June. Jumping worms were found in Wisconsin in the fall of It is not known ow they arrived, but we can help prevent their spread to new areas. 1. Educate yourself and others to recognize them. 2. Only use, sell, plant, purchase or trade landscape and gardening materials and plants that appear to be free of jumping worms. 3. Only sell, purchase or trade compost that was heated to appropriate temperatures and duration following protocols that reduce pathogens. 4. Arrive clean, leave clean: Clean soil and debris from vehicles, equipment and personal gear before moving to and from a work or recreational area. 5. Watch for jumping worms and signs of their presence. For more information visit Each year the American Hosta Growers Association chooses one plant to feature as the Hosta of the Year. For 2017, this honor goes to Brother Stefan, a large cultivar that produces a mound of thick, textured foliage.
