GMREC research technician Clare Johnston is assisting an entomology research group by collecting immature apples. The small apples are used to feed an insect population of plum curculio, a snout beetle and a serious pest to apples and peaches, to provide usable insects for their work.
The Herb Garden located at GMREC is maintained by a group of volunteers group and is used for public engagement, not UGA research. The herbs selected are often used for medicinal and culinary purposes by local Appalachians. Other gardens, like the Fern Garden, Forage Garden, Pollinator Garden, and Wildflower Garden, are also housed at the facility.
