The growing season is still getting started, and with all the unpredictable Alabama weather we've been having, there’s still plenty of time to get those vegetables in the ground.

As you plant and prepare for harvest, don’t forget to join Alabama Extension’s Grow More, Give More 250 lb Challenge, a great way to share fresh produce with your community. https://www.aces.edu/go/6066

And just like the garden, our lawns are coming back to life. If you have questions about planting, landscaping, or lawn care, Alabama Extension is here to help. Complete the Master Gardener Help Request form to connect with local experts. https://www.aces.edu/go/3352

Happy April Fools Day!

04/01/2026

With warmer weather and longer days, April is the perfect time to build healthy habits. That’s why Move Alabama — A Community Physical Activity Challenge is happening all month long. This statewide effort from EFNEP encourages simple ways to add more movement to your day, like taking a 10-minute walk, joining a group activity, or exploring a local park.

County Extension offices across Alabama are hosting fun pop-up events, and participants can receive regular tips, encouragement, and motivation throughout the challenge. Best of all, it only takes a personal commitment to move more to get started.

Ready to join the challenge? Connect with EFNEP on Facebook to follow along, share how you’re staying active, and get helpful tips all month long. Let’s move more together and build healthier communities across Alabama! Learn more about the Move Alabama Challenge here: https://www.aces.edu/go/6165
