We currently have 5 master gardener volunteers. The only project they have been actively engaged is keeping our diagnostic hotline/office hours three day a week. One of my priorities is to re-energize the master gardener program and get the existing and new volunteers involved in gardening projects and presentations. 

I am the director in Cayuga County, with some of my time devoted to agriculture and natural resources programming. I started this position in October, but have had different positions in CCE and on campus in extension for over 10 years, mainly in farm management and agronomy. My first jobs in agriculture were on greenhouse/nursery operations, but I really need a refresher on ornamentals.

We got another good dose of rain in Central New York over the last 24 hours, so I'll share some pictures of my home vegetable garden next time the sun is shining.
