Howdy!
My name is Sarah Marsh, and I am the new Integrated Pest Management (IPM) specialist for the Upper Coast region. If I have not yet had the opportunity to meet with you, I'd like to give a little background. I grew up on a diversified row-crop and orchard farm in northern California. I obtained my B.S. in Plant and Environmental Soil Science from Texas A&M University in 2020, where I also worked for Dr. Julie Howe in soil fertility projects. Over the course of my undergraduate career, I also worked in a California extension office, studying rice pest control. I earned a Masters degree in Weed Science at UC Davis, where my thesis projects focused on crop protection and weed control in rice fields, as well as inherent herbicide resistance of rice lines. I have been working in the Wharton County Extension office since the beginning of August, and please feel free to come by or give me a call if you have any questions or would just like to meet with me. I am excited to be working in this region and look forward to getting to know all of you.
