Grad students: are you writing a diss that touches upon rural or agricultural history in any time or place? Please apply to share your work at the @AgHistorySoc's 2023 Graduate Workshop, in June. $$$ for travel & best paper. Deadline is Nov. 1. Details @ aghistorysociety.org/graduat…
One of the best parts of teaching is working with bright graduate students like @botanyandbeans, who wrote her MA thesis on the recovery of Puerto Rico's coffee industry after Hurricane Maria. She summarizes this research in a recent post on @IICA news. Way to go, Justina!
I wrote a blog article that was just published by @IICAnews!
