Illinois Department of Agriculture was awarded 2 of the 5 portions USDA CWD Grant. The virtual meeting at the end of September was about CWD Sampling Certification. In this portion of the grant, you can get certified to take your own cwd samples, free tools/shipping supplies, and all submissions paid. I am working with Dr.Willney to have a class during our spring event. With that, wenare currently working on the details for our Spring Event. Please if you have any suggestions reach out to a board member.
Thank you,
