Howdy, intrepid Plant People! I hope you're doing OK! I have a great guest for you today. Dr. Joey Young is an Associate Professor of Turfgrass Science at Texas Tech University.

Episode 13: Dr. Erica Irlbeck and Kelsi Opat- Distance Education, Agricutlural Communication, and The Nerd Shield

What's up, Plant People?! I'm so excited for you to hear today's episode! I had the chance to interview Dr. Erica Irlbeck and Kelsi Opat (twice...you'll hear more about that in the episode) from the Texas Tech Department of Agricultural Education and Communications. We talked about how to address distance education, changes that may be coming in academia, how to be effective communicators, and an interesting concept known as "The Nerd Shield." I think you're going to love it. Give it a listen and leave me a review to let me know what you think!

Episode 12: Amber Bates and Kaylee Decker- Agrotourism, Grad School Bonding, and Bruiser the Pig

What's up plant people? I recorded the episode with my friends Amber Bates and Kaylee Deck of Grove Hill Farms like 1000 years ago, and I can't wait for you to hear it! Their business is a super rad agrotourism operation in North Texas and was such a beautiful place to record. I got to sit in Amber's dining room in her home on the farm and catch up with these two wonderful humans. Make sure you go check out Grove Hill Farms if you're ever in the Dallas metroplex or in North Texas (or Southern Oklahoma, for that matter)! You won't regret it!!

Hey, what's up Plant People? I hope everyone is doing well during these wild times we're in. I can't wait for you to hear today's episode. My guest, Dr. Jessica Tullar Caroom, is an epidemiologist and public health professional, community activist and organizer, leader of an organization that addresses hunger through gardening efforts, and the founder of a school garden movement in Lubbock. She's brilliant, insightful, and funny, and we dive deep into some of the issues surrounding health and wellness and how we might be able to address those things with horticulture and education.
