Hurricane Ida gave us cooler but damp weather so we headed home to watch the ACES Zoom presentation. Thanks to Mary Lou McNabb and Extension Agent Gary Murray for starting the very first MG class in Alabama. Thanks also go to Elouisa Stokes(40 active MG years), Tony Glover and Dave Williams for their contributions to the Master Gardener Extension Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1920\" height=\"1920\" src=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/93BFA5B5-48EB-4B0F-B795-1EA702561BD0-1920x1920.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20366\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/93BFA5B5-48EB-4B0F-B795-1EA702561BD0-scaled.jpeg 1920w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/93BFA5B5-48EB-4B0F-B795-1EA702561BD0-960x960.jpeg 960w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/93BFA5B5-48EB-4B0F-B795-1EA702561BD0-395x395.jpeg 395w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/93BFA5B5-48EB-4B0F-B795-1EA702561BD0-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/93BFA5B5-48EB-4B0F-B795-1EA702561BD0-2048x2048.jpeg 2048w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/93BFA5B5-48EB-4B0F-B795-1EA702561BD0-250x250.jpeg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img width=\"1920\" height=\"1920\" src=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/998CC495-E46E-4E92-B9FB-6C683CC86B38-1920x1920.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20368\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/998CC495-E46E-4E92-B9FB-6C683CC86B38-scaled.jpeg 1920w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/998CC495-E46E-4E92-B9FB-6C683CC86B38-960x960.jpeg 960w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/998CC495-E46E-4E92-B9FB-6C683CC86B38-395x395.jpeg 395w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/998CC495-E46E-4E92-B9FB-6C683CC86B38-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/998CC495-E46E-4E92-B9FB-6C683CC86B38-2048x2048.jpeg 2048w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/998CC495-E46E-4E92-B9FB-6C683CC86B38-250x250.jpeg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img width=\"1920\" height=\"1920\" src=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/5E9A99EB-C9FD-4230-8150-5AF352086B97-1920x1920.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20367\" srcset=\"http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/5E9A99EB-C9FD-4230-8150-5AF352086B97-scaled.jpeg 1920w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/5E9A99EB-C9FD-4230-8150-5AF352086B97-960x960.jpeg 960w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/5E9A99EB-C9FD-4230-8150-5AF352086B97-395x395.jpeg 395w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/5E9A99EB-C9FD-4230-8150-5AF352086B97-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/5E9A99EB-C9FD-4230-8150-5AF352086B97-2048x2048.jpeg 2048w, http:\/\/mg.aces.edu\/chilton\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/84\/2021\/09\/5E9A99EB-C9FD-4230-8150-5AF352086B97-250x250.jpeg 250w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chilton County Master Gardeners celebrated the fortieth anniversary of Alabama Extension Master Gardeners Volunteers with a luncheon at the Chilton Research and Extension Center.
