Featured Speaker/s:Sue Farr
Topic:Earthkind® Grape Trials
Featured Speaker/s:Rhonda Lesher and Dale Vanhoose
Sue is one of our own CBMGA Master Gardeners. Sue joined our group in 2015 and hit the ground running mentoring the next class of Master Gardeners, co-bedhead of our blackberry bed, taking a leadership role in working on our Superstar beds and completing her Master Gardener Specialist training in Texas Superstar® Plants. Only the toughest, most reliable and best-looking plants make the cut. Every plant earning the Texas Superstar® designation undergoes several years of extensive field trials by Texas A&M AgriLife Research and the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service, both part of the Texas A&M System.
Rhonda and Dale each have one of the Earthkind® grape trials running at their properties and were instrumental in establishing the Earthkind® Grape beds (not part of the trial) behind the Extension office.
Snacks, soft drinks and coffee will be provided.
Current Master Gardeners are welcome but encouraged to limit their participation in class discussion. The time will count towards your CEU requirement.
