Meet Miranda Ulmer, CSU’s New Viticulture Extension Specialist

Please join the Colorado grape-grower conference call on Monday, June 17 at Noon—Note new date and new time!—to meet Miranda Ulmer, CSU’s new Viticulture Extension Specialist, at least by phone.  We are thrilled to have Miranda join the Colorado wine industry, fresh off finishing her Master’s of Science with an emphasis in Viticulture from Oregon State University, where she studied under one of the leading extension viticulturists in the country, Dr. Patty Skinkis.  Miranda is passionate about extension and sharing knowledge and resources with grape growers.

She will be working out of the WCRC—Orchard Mesa location, although will be under the administration of CJ Mucklow, CSU Extension’s Director of the Western Region.  Join this conference call to learn about her background, objectives and priorities for her position and share with her what you would like to see from the Extension Viticulture Specialist.

This position is funded by a Specialty Crops Block Grant awarded to the wine industry by the Colorado Deparment of Agriculture with matching funds from CAVE and the CWIDB.  Click here for information on joining the call.
