More than you would ever want to know about plant insect pests. Who feeds on foliage? Which insects like roots better? Who feeds on vegetables? Fruit? What are the life cycles of these insects? How do they overwinter? We will answer these questions and more. Bring in any insects you want identified. Come join us for 1.5 hours of insect fun.
This presentation will be given by Rose Hiskes who works as a diagnostician and horticulturist at The Connecticut Agricultural Experiment Station, Valley Laboratory, in Windsor, CT. Rose has a bachelor's degree in agriculture from the University of Illinois and a master's degree in plant science from the University of Connecticut. She has worked in the green industry for over 25 years. Some of her horticultural interests are insects, flower gardening and invasive plants. She is a volunteer with the Connecticut Invasive Plant Working Group. -

Stress has many causes and is a serious problem for those involved in agriculture. Unfortunately many folks try to deal with this quietly, showing a stiff upper lip, and by themselves – not the healthiest route to take. Join us in learning more about how to identify stressors, understanding ways to help yourself, and equally important, how to identify signs so you may be able to help your friends and colleagues.
This FREE one day “CT Ag Wellness Summit: Helping You to Help Others” is for farmers, producers, and ag service providers. Attached is the flyer and registration information. This important summit is a collaboration between the UConn Dept. of Extension and Dept. of Plant Science & LA, CT Department of Agriculture, CT Farm Bureau, Farm Credit East, CT Veterinary Medical Association, Tufts Veterinary Medical Center, CT NOFA, USDA-Risk Management Agency and CT Department of Mental Health & Addiction Services. -
