This Saturday, May 9th is Stamp Out Hunger, the nation's largest one-day food drive with the National Association of Letter Carriers and we need your help reaching our 100k pound goal! Here's how:

1️⃣ Keep an eye out this week for the blue grocery bag coming in your mail

2️⃣ Fill it (or any bag) with non-perishable donations (no glass, please!) and set it by your mailbox Saturday before your mail carrier arrives

3️⃣ That's it! Your mail carrier will handle delivering the food to us!

Tell a friend, to tell a friend -- with food donations scarce through the summer, we are in critical need for help. Together, we can make a difference!🥫

It’s time!

A crabgrass pre-emergent herbicide prevents annual grass seeds from developing into mature plants. These products create a barrier in the upper layer of soil that stops crabgrass seedlings as they begin to germinate. Because pre-emergent herbicides only work before the w**d emerges, timing is very important. Once crabgrass is visible in the lawn, these products will no longer be effective.

In Kansas, crabgrass typically begins germinating in late April to early May as soil temperatures warm. A helpful indicator for proper timing is the blooming of redbud trees, which signals that soil temperatures are approaching the range where crabgrass seeds begin to germinate.

As always, read the product label carefully and follow all instructions.
