KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — “At Home in Tennessee,” a new television show from the University of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service, is set to debut at 6:30 p.m., Aug. 29, on WSJK Public Television.
Dr. LaRae Donnellan, extension professor and “At Home” host, said the program would air each fourth Sunday monthly and cover a variety of topics of interest to Tennesseans.
The first show features an interview with new University of Tennessee President Wade Gilley and a story on preparing, storing and transporting food safely for tailgate parties or picnics.
Other topics include the extension service’s financial management program in West Tennessee, lawn care, and a visit to “Uncle Jimmy’s Garden” north of Knoxville.
