Plants Pests and Pathogens 2012 Starts Next Tuesday, February 28

Next Tuesday February 28 we kick off the 2012 Season of Plants Pests and Pathogens with Dr. Larry Grand, who will speak about mushrooms and other macrofungi. Dr. Grand is part of a multidisciplinary team assessing fungal biodiversity in North Carolina state parks and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. 

Plants, Pests and Pathogens is an in-service training program for Horticulture Extension Agents and Extension Master Gardeners. 

The Plants, Pests, and Pathogen sessions will be conducted on the fourth Tuesday of February, April, June, August, and October 2012 from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. Every session includes a discussion of current plant disease and insect problems by the Plant Disease and Insect Clinic's Mike Munster and Dave Stephan.
