Magoon Makes Good
Representatives from the Hokkaido legislative assembly and prefectural government, accompanied by Thomas Lim and Steve Spielman, recently visited the Magoon Research Station. There they spoke with TPSS’s Orville Baldos about sustainable ornamental plant production, Tessie Amore and Peter Toves about anthurium and dendrobium culture, Ken Leonhardt and his graduate student Michael Martinez-Sepulveda about ornamental crops, and student Giselle Bryant about the Student Organic Farm Training program. They also met Birendra Mishra (HNFAS), Janice Uchida (PEPS), Craig Okazaki (TPSS), and Christopher Buehler (TPSS), and they expressed their admiration for the fine work being done at the station.
