Find Your Zone!
The 2012 USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map helps gardeners and growers determine which plants are most likely to thrive at a location. For the first time, the map is available as an interactive GIS-based map, for which a broadband Internet connection is recommended. Users may also simply type in a ZIP Code and find the hardiness zone for that area.

Bedbugs
If you suspect that you have bed bugs in your home, contact the Health Department first. The Health Dept. is located at County Building 2, 3837 West Main St., Batavia. Insect samples should be put in a clear sandwich bag and then in another sealed bag or in a clear bag and then in a jar. Place them in the freezer for 3 days.
Please do not bring live samples into the Master Gardener office.
