Bringing houseplants indoors for the season? Don’t bring the pests with them!

Before moving plants inside:
✅ Inspect leaves, stems, and soil
✅ Remove dead or diseased tissue
✅ Check for insects and mites
✅ Rinse plants if appropriate
✅ Quarantine new arrivals when possible

A few minutes of inspection now can prevent a winter infestation.

WE'RE EXCITED TO PRESENT A NEW REGULAR SERIES - "ROOTED & WELL"!

Jitana Benton-Lee (Jai) completed the University of Kentucky Extension Master Gardener Course in December of 2025 and has lists a number of accomplishments in the field of medical science, including a Ph.D (c), DNP, MSN, MBA-HC, and more.

Here's her story in her own words . . .

"Growing up in a farming family with large gardens, gardening has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My interest expanded into herbs around 2007, and I have been growing, using, and learning about herbs ever since. I previously owned Sowful Blessings, a small business specializing in herbal and seasoning blends and value-added products created from herbs and spices."

"Professionally, I am a nurse educator and scientist whose work focuses on health and health equity across diverse patient populations. I enjoy bringing together my interests in gardening, herbs, food, education, and health, and I am excited to continue learning and sharing with others through the Master Gardener community."

Each month, she will offer an herb, share a few of the health benefits, and include tips for growing. We think you will enjoy these regular articles here in the CAEMG page!

This month's article includes helpful information regarding Rosemary.

Stay tuned!

It's time for a new community connection! This month, we are collecting items to be used to create beautiful Christmas ornaments for our local nursing homes. Closer to Christmas, we will announce a workday where Homemaker Volunteers will put together ornaments from all donated items. Items needed are: Christmas cards and decorations, and used mason jar rings.

To operate in accordance with our Homemaker values of reusing and recycling, please only donate used mason jar rings and any Christmas cards or decor that you already own and no longer need.

A very Happy Birthday wish to all of our family, friends and followers celebrating October birthdays!
