  • Mother Nature Doesn't Stop Ag Day

    Kari Hould, PCN Staff|Apr 3, 2024

    As spring was welcomed with open arms and brooms standing solo in the kitchens, the rush to exchange seasons lasted less time than it took to brush the cobwebs off the screen door. Montana's winter season swung back around and dumped moisture across the state, and did not forget to visit Phillips County. The eager beavers found themselves swapping out flip flops and jogging shorts to locating the kids' winter caps and gloves again. It was a sure sign spring is here...the storm was just Mother...

If you’re outside working or recreating, you need to be aware that bears are out there, too. Anytime bears are not in hibernation, which is typically between the beginning of March and the end of November, is the time to be bear aware, accor...

  • Planning for the Cost of Long-Term Care

    Lisa Baxter and Marsha Goetting, Aging Services Specialist and Extension Family Economics Specialist|Apr 3, 2024

    Around 70 percent of people over the age of 65 will require long-term care services at some point in their life. According to the Administration on Aging (AOA), the average woman needs long-term care services for 3.7 years, and the average man needs those services for 2.2 years.
