About Ronda Anson
Ronda is a weekly Monday morning volunteer at the Horticulture Answer Service and a Monday afternoon volunteer at the Plant Doctor Desk at Kemper. She has worked regularly to verify and process the over 2000 pest images from, apple maggot to voles, available in the GardeningHelp.org Integrated Pest Management pages. She has taken a very keen interest in insects and has done extensive study in the area to develop a landmark set of Insect Order web pages that are available in GardeningHelp.org. The pages have also been used in Plant Doctor training classes. They are heavily illustrated with images and are a remarkable educational tool for anyone who wants to learn more about insects. Ronda is also a member of the Kemper Center’s Plant Informational Services committee that plans and coordinates events and trainings as well as develops resource materials for the Kemper Center volunteers. For the past two years Ronda co-taught the yearly Plant Doctor class with Glenn Kopp the Center’s Horticulture Information Manager. Ronda has brought her wealth of skills and abilities to make a tremendous difference in the scope and quality or horticulture information available to volunteers and the general public. Her love of learning, and sharing what she learns with others, makes her a most exemplary winner of the Master Gardener of the Year award.
