SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, JUNE 2, 2018 | 11A Lane Community College-Florence honors three faculty members Lane Community College (LCC) honored three LCC Florence Center faculty on May 30 at its 2018 Employ- ee Recognition Gala held in the Center for Meeting and Learning on the main Eugene campus. The honored instruc- tors were Carrie Newell, Mary Coville and John Arle. Newell is officially retiring June 30, though staff hope to still see her around the Flor- ence Center in days ahead. She has worked with gray whales and other marine mammals for more than 25 years and is the founder of the Whale, Sea Life and Shark Museum in De- poe Bay that also offers Whale Research Eco Excursions. She teaches marine biology and related science courses at the LCC Florence Center. Coville was honored for her 20 years of service to the college. She has a Ph.D. from Oregon State University and has taught chemistry at the Florence Center for the past several years as a much-loved instructor. Arle has now been with LCC for 10 years, another COURTESY PHOTOS milestone worthy of recogni- tion. Even more impressive, LCC-Florence dean Russ Pearson (far left) with faculty members Mary Coville and John Arle; above right, Carrie Newell John has spent well over four decades as an innovative sci- ence instructor. At the LCC Florence Center, John has de- veloped a strong cadre of stu- dents who appreciate his hy- brid anatomy and physiology classes. “I am incredibly proud of the great work our faculty do every day on our local cam- pus,” noted Russ Pierson, dean of the LCC Florence Center. “It is an honor to serve the greater Florence community and the entire Siuslaw region with remarkable professionals exemplified by Carrie, Mary and John.” For more information about Lane Community College at Florence, visit www.lanecc. edu/Florence.

Strawberries, asparagus, squash and salad greens — not to mention bedding plants, flowering baskets and fresh- cut flowers — are just a few fa- vorites of spring’s agricultural bounty in Oregon. But if you want to venture out into the country, where can you buy directly from the source? Oregon’s Bounty is a search- able directory of nearly 300 family farms and ranches that sell food and foliage directly to the public. The program allows visitors to do keyword searches for specific agriculture products — such as berries, cauliflower, honey or eggs — and/or search for farms within a specific re- gion of the state. Visitors can also do a keyword search for “u-pick” or “events” to find farms that offer those activities. Each of the farms listed in Oregon’s Bounty are owned and operated by Farm Bureau mem- bers. The state’s largest gener- al farm organization, Oregon Farm Bureau is a grassroots, nonpartisan, nonprofit organi- zation representing the interests of the state’s farmers and ranch- ers in the public and policy- making arenas.
