About this Event
5440 SE Kellogg Creek Dr. Milwaukie, OR 97222
https://clackamascountymastergardeners.org/lectures/The OSU Garden Ecology Lab was founded in 2016, to develop research-based recommendations that are suitable and scalable to home and community gardens. In this talk, Dr. Langellotto will provide an overview of work going on in the laboratory, with a focus on two studies in various stages of progress: 1) how the cultivation of native plants, to produce native cultivars, affects pollinator visitation, and 2) working towards an integrated approach of building-integrated agriculture.
Gail Langellotto is a Professor of Horticulture at Oregon State University, and the principle investigator of the Garden Ecology Lab. In addition, she coordinates OSU’s Urban Agriculture Certificate Program, leads a multi-state effort to grow support for native plant nursery growers (which is called ‘Native Plant Connection’), and co-leads the College of Agricultural Sciences and leads the Department of Horticulture diversity, equity, inclusion, and access committees. Previously, she coordinated the statewide Master Gardener Program from 2007-2023, and draws direct inspiration for research projects from conversations with Master Gardener volunteers.
