SUMMARY:Everything Pecan
DESCRIPTION:Bexar County Master Gardener is proud to host “Everything Pecan” presented by Dr. Larry Stein at the new Greenies Urban Farm. For years\, Dr. Stein headed up the Texas A&M University “Pecan Short Course”. This educational offering is a rare opportunity for BCMGs to hear about pecans from the person who literally wrote the handbook on pecan trees for the state of Texas. In addition to the seminar\, there will be samples of numerous pecan varieties. \nRegistration is limited to 20 spots and the $5 non-refundable registration fee covers the cost of the pecans. Registration is now through May 15th (or until event has reached capacity). \n***PLEASE NOTE: if you have nut allergies\, there will be 7-8 varieties of pecans sampled at this seminar.*** \nLarry Stein\, Professor/Extension Horticulturist began his Extension career 38 years ago\, earned his Ph.D. from Texas A&M University in 1985\, attained the rank of professor in 1999\, and accepted an additional role in 2012 as associate department head and Extension program leader in horticultural sciences. As an AgriLife Extension specialist\, Dr. Larry Stein is renowned for extraordinary research and outreach to improve crop production\, primarily of spinach\,\npecans\, grapes\, and citrus\, as well as “Texas Superstar®” plants. He is a founder of the International Spinach Conference\, now in its 20th year. He developed production improvements for the pecan industry\, specifically regarding late season irrigation and crop load management\, which are nearly universally adopted today. He is credited with five plant variety releases—two new bluebonnet color types\, the “Victoria Red” grape\, and two satsumas\, including the patented “Arctic Frost\,” which has given rise to potential expansion of the citrus industry beyond the sub-tropical zone. \nCE 2.5
