From her early years on a farm in Indiana, Renee developed a love of plants and gardening, and is committed to helping others develop a better understanding of plants. She began teaching horticulture at CCC in 2002, including courses in Plant ID, Propagation, Greenhouse Crops and Computer Aided Landscape Design. She earned a doctorate in Horticulture from Oregon State University, where she studied how plants survive environmental stress - in particular, low temperature stress. And, she did a post-doc with the USDA Agricultural Research Service outside of Macon Georgia. Renee has been an OSU Master Gardener since 2000. And, she also creates the gardening crossword puzzles for the Oregonian’s Home & Garden section.
