Volunteers Needed for Morning Glory Research - Nov 10th-12th!




Would you like to get a glimpse of what research is like?  Do you need experience or volunteer hours?  The Baucom lab from the biology department is doing agricultural research with a problematic weed, the morning glory.  Research at the University of Cincinnati's field station in Harrison, OH has come to a close with the season, and we need to harvest our plants for seed collection.  

We are in need of assistance, as many hands make light work.  We will be holding a harvesting party Thursday, Friday* and Saturday of next week (Nov 10-12).  Please come and join us whenever you have time!  

We will be going out from 9am-4pm and will provide lunch and snacks for those helping out.  We will be able to take a van full of people out or if you would like to drive out your self and only stay some of that time that is fine.  What a great opportunity to get outside and see some pretty fall foliage, plus this is a great opportunity to gain research experience in an exciting topic!

Please email Sara (matthess@ucmail.uc.edu) or Lindsay (chaneyly@mail.uc.edu) if we can plan on you coming.

*Remember Friday Nov 11 is veterans day and we do not have school.
