XENIA, Ohio — Due to health and safety concerns regarding the coronavirus, Central State University Extension and the Ohio Department of Agriculture have made adjustments to activities previously planned for this week.
Central State University Extension has postponed the Hemp Growing and Processing Trade Show that was originally scheduled from 2 to 7 p.m., Thursday, March 12, at Central State University-Xenia, 336 Progress Dr., Xenia.

Due to the Ohio Department of Agriculture’s commitment to slow the spread of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), all tours for Ohio Agriculture Week have been CANCELED.
Monday morning, March 9, Assistant Director of Agriculture Tim Derickson kicked off Ohio Agriculture Week during a visit to 80 Acres Farms, a state-of-the-art, tech-centric indoor farm that’s housed entirely inside a Cincinnati-area warehouse. Derickson was to continue to celebrate Ohio Agriculture Week with more than a dozen events across Ohio throughout the rest of the week, but an announcement was made by ODA canceling those activities on Tuesday, March 10.
