Ann Hazelrigg

I am the director of the Plant Diagnostic Clinic, a statewide resource for commercial growers, Master Gardeners, home gardeners and the general public. The lab identifies disease, insect and weed samples, and makes recommendations for control based on integrated pest management (IPM) principles. I also oversee the VT Master Gardener Program, the UVM Pesticide Education and Safety Program and the Extension E-IPM program.

Educational programs and curricula include pest and disease biology and identification, pest management strategies using the latest IPM technologies and the safe use of pesticides to improve crop health, increase farm profitability and protect public and environmental health
