Love veggies? Me, too. And so does my friend Tim Waters, regional vegetable specialist at WSU Extension.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• What Extension is
• What it was like for Extension agents back in 1918
• How he solves problems—from insect ID to veggie pathogens to lightning strikes in fields
• One cool journey from community college all the way to a PhD

Resources you can use:

• Check out WSU Extension yourself (or look up Extension near you)
• Learn more about WSU research farms
• Find out how to a start a veggie garden yourself
• See some Prionid beetles and giant water bugs
• Even more giant water bugs! You won't believe how these guys breathe underwater and care for their eggs in this PBS Deep Look video
