From Marvin Pritts, Horticulture Section chair:

August 16 was a big day for our ‘horticulture family’:

  • Jenny Kao-Kniffin and family welcomed their newest addition, Mary Susquehanna Kniffin, who entered the world at 7 pounds 8 ounces.
  • Violet Stone and Joshua Pezet — who both work with the Cornell Small Farms Program — were wed at Cornell Plantations F.R. Newman Arboretum.

  • Steve Gabriel and Liz Falk — who both work in the Cornell Garden-Based Learning Program — got married.
  • Graduate Field of Horticulture PhD candidate Stephanie Beeks married Adam Brace.

Three weddings and a birth. Not bad for one day.

Other recent horticultural nuptials include:

  • Franny Doerflinger (PhD candidate) and Vinay Pagay (PhD ’13) wed June 1.
  • Romi Tasaki (PhD candidate) and Brent Wilson wed July 19.
  • Bill Kreuser (PhD ’13) and Katie King (MPS ’13) wed August 2.
  • And coming up, Ethan Dropkin (MPS ’13) and Liz Kushner August 31.
