March is Bake and Take Month
Bake and Take Month is a time to bake an item and then take it to someone to let them know you're thinking about them.
Contact the Extension Office for Bake and Take pamphlets and stickers to include with your baked goods. Bake and Take Month is sponsored by the Nebraska Wheat Growers Association and the Nebraska Wheat Board. This is a great community service project!
