COVID-19 put a damper on many face-to-face events in 2020 and 2021.  The first face-to-face Fleming County ANR sponsored event since COVID-19 was the Electric Fencing School.  The program was planned by the Fleming County and Lewis County Extension Offices and promoted within the Buffalo Trace County area.  

Thirty attendees learned new techniques with electric fencing such as how to construct a floating brace as well as options for electric fencing poles and insulators.  Attendees were given the opportunity to jump in and assist in a hands-on learning on the construction of the brace and how to twist the wire and break by hand.  

At the conclusion of the event many attendees voiced their pleasure of the program and how they thought the speakers were very relatable and easy to understand.  One attended verbally shared that he learned new techniques that he plans to use on his farm.
