Each year Cherokee County residents request visits for the N.C. Cooperative Extension, Cherokee County Center staff to review plants that may not be thriving in the environment and to identify insects. Beginning March 1, 2024 we will be asking county residents to utilize the resources of the NC State University Plant Disease and Insect Clinic and to attend educational programs that are offered by the county center and Master Gardeners to assist with insect and disease identification.

Instructions on submitting samples to the clinic:

Insects

Vegetable and Bedding Plants Diagnosis

Trees and Shrubs Disease Diagnosis

For more information about submitting samples to the Plant Disease and Insect Clinic (PDIC)), please go to their website.

Finally Extension Master Gardener℠ volunteers in Cherokee County and staff teach classes yearly to assist with understanding disease problems. The classes can be seen on the calendar and in articles on the website and also at go.ncsu.edu/cherokeecounty.
