Emerald Ash Borer is Spreading

The Emerald Ash borer is spreading in Pennsylvania, with it's recent discovery in Westmoreland county. It has also been found in the St. Paul, MN area. It appears the nasty critter is moving in all directions! Check out www.mypawoods.blogspot.com for some additional information on Pennsylvania monitoring efforts.

Wayne County Garden Helpline

The Penn State Master Gardeners have launched a Garden Helpline for Wayne County residents from June through August, 2009.

The helpline will be staffed by trained Master Gardeners each Tuesday morning from 10:00 AM to Noon from May through August. You can reach the Helpline by calling 570-253-5970 x 1614.
