Crop producers from around southwest Indiana are invited to attend a free Purdue Extension crop workshop March 6 in Bretzville covering field crop management and herbicide-resistant plants.

The Southwest Indiana Crop Seminar will run from 12:25 to 4:45 p.m. at the Dubois County 4-H Fairgrounds, 4157 S. state Route 162, about six miles south of Jasper.

"We want to give local crop producers an opportunity to meet with industry professionals and academic specialists to discuss topics that might affect this year's crop," said Kenneth Eck, Dubois County Extension educator.

Topics and their presenters are:

The grapes are picked and it's time to celebrate autumn at Monkey Hollow Winery.  Their Harvest Fest takes place Saturday, October 13.

There will be live music from 12:30 to 6 p.m. featuring classical guitar, folk, country and rock music.

A new pumpkin patch opens this Saturday along the Dubois/Spencer County line.

There’s no charge to tour the grounds at Family Roots Nursery and see the fall flowers including homegrown mums and pumpkins.  You can see thousands of pumpkins and gourds of all shapes, colors and sizes.

Pumpkins start at $.33 each & go up to $25. Sampling of Apple Cider takes place all fall as well.  Several local made baked goods & home décor are also available for visitors to purchase.
