Bossier Seminars to Teach All You Need to Know About Homesteading
The Red River Research Station of the LSU Ag Center in Bossier City has taken on the task of teaching you how to truly live off the land.
On the next two consecutive Saturdays, those who might fancy themselves as modern homesteaders will certainly want to attend the free events coming up at "The Big Red Barn" at the LSU Ag Center.
The popularity of modern day homesteading is exemplified in the overall popularity of some of the television shows dedicated to the subject matter and William Rush of the Ag Center tells us that literally thousands have expressed interest in the upcoming events at the Red River Research Station.
The first of these events is dedicated to hunting here in Northwest Louisiana and the second will cover a variety of topics regarding homesteading in general.
