Presenter: Meghan Baker – NC Cooperative Extension Agent

Small fruits, such as blueberries, strawberries, and brambles enhance backyard gardens, providing beauty, habitat, and delicious flavors. Meghan Baker will teach us how to choose the proper site for a variety of small fruits and discuss cultural requirements for consistent harvests. She will describe varieties best-suited for our WNC region and help us on our way to truly fruitful, abundant harvests.

Meghan Baker is an outreach educator with NC Cooperative Extension, assisting small diversified farms in the Buncombe County region. Known for her expertise on a broad variety of plant crops, she balances production information within the larger realm of ecological stewardship. As a Certified Environmental Educator and Certified Interpretive Guide, she relishes any opportunity to share her love of nature with others.
