Thank you!

 

I have a stakeholder from Oregon and he also has property here in Idaho. He wanted to speak with Bernadine Strik. He realized she is retired but I thought maybe you have an email for her?

 

I will give him these publications. He does not use a computer so I am doing the electronic part of the correspondence.

 

 

Kind regards,

 

Iris

Thanks, Dr. Mayes.  Dr. Strik retired 12/31/21.  The only way I know to contact her is through the university email system.  <personal data hidden>
She had a Facebook page in years past that may still be active.  I assume snail mail would be forwarded to her through the University:  Dept. of Horticulture Ag. & Life Sci. Bldg. 4017, OSU, Corvallis, OR  97331-7304.
