  A Hub for the Community: How Jefferson-Morgan is Shaping Tomorrow's Leaders | Episode #35

  Sep 4, 202641 min

  Thank you to First Student for sponsoring this episode! Visit https://firststudentinc.com/ for more information and details. ----- School is back in session, Greene County! In this episode of the GreeneScene Podcast, host Shelly Brown steps into the classroom to explore the changing landscape of modern education with three passionate leaders from the Jefferson-Morgan School District: Superintendent Brandon Robinson, Principal and Assistant Superintendent Wes Loring, and 4th-grade math teacher (and 2026 Pennsylvania Teacher of the Year) Maddie Loring! Together, they are proving that small-town schools can lead the way in big-time innovation. From Brandon’s fresh, collaborative leadership style (and impressive sneaker collection!) to Wes and Maddie’s deep local roots, you’ll hear how JM is transforming into a true hub for the entire community. In this episode, we’re learning about: > A Teacher of the Year in Our Backyard: Maddie Loring shares her journey from graduating as a Rocket in 2011 to becoming a statewide ambassador for education right back in her hometown. > Building Good Neighbors: How JM's leadership course gets students out into the county for service hours by having them volunteering at fishing derbies, craft shows, and baseball clinics to develop the "whole child." > Empowering Creativity: Brandon and Wes discuss the power of trusting teachers, embracing the Gifted Program for outside-the-box thinkers, and leaning into modern tech like AI rather than running from it. > Connecting with Kids: The importance of real human engagement, pausing to ask students what they truly need, and a unique 45-minute daily block that lets kids build interpersonal skills and explore their interests.

  Cultivating Greene County with the Master Gardeners | Episode #33

  Aug 7, 202649 min

  Thank you to Wayne Lumber & Supply for sponsoring this episode! Visit https://waynelumbersupply.com/ for more information and details. ----- There is nothing quite like the feeling of stepping out into the garden and harvesting food you grew with your own two hands. In this episode of the GreeneScene Podcast, hosts Shelly Brown and TR Mahle sit down with two neighbors who are passionate about helping our county bloom: Cheryl Brendel, County Coordinator for the Greene County Master Gardeners, and long-time Master Gardener John Areford. Whether you are trying to wrangle local deer away from your garden, curious about new pollinators visiting your squash patches, or dealing with a mysterious blight on your tomato plants (which is actually what first brought John to the program), Cheryl and John are here to show us that help is always just a phone call away. Best of all, the Penn State Extension Master Gardener helpline and community resources are completely free for all Greene County residents! In this episode, we’re digging into: > Rooted in Community: Learning science-based gardening knowledge and sharing it right back with neighbors across the county. > Wild Neighbors & Garden Pests: How the shift in natural habitats have affected our local deer and wildlife populations, plus practical, real-world tips (like proper fencing) to protect your harvest. > Insects, Bees, and Blight: A fascinating look at new native pollinators, like a newly discovered bee species attracted specifically to squash, and how to spot invasive plants and insects making their way into Pennsylvania. > Growing Your Own Food: Why home gardening and programs like "Seed to Supper" are more important now than ever for local families.

In this episode of the GreeneScene Podcast, host Shelly Brown sits down with a wonderful mix of generations from our local 4-H community: dedicated leaders Tracy Cole and Robin Archer, alongside two inspiring local youth members, Lillian Cheek and Zach Butler. In this episode, we talk about: > Life in the Barn: Lillian shares the daily dedication it takes to raise and personally shear her lambs, while Zach walks us through the 16-month commitment of raising market steers (including working through a broken thumb right before a show!). > More Than Just Farming: Robin and Tracy discuss how Greene County’s unique county-wide clubs help youth thrive, exploring non-livestock projects like robotics, photography, sewing, and the leadership-building County Council. > The Business of Ag: How the 4-H "buyer's walk" teaches kids real-world salesmanship, public speaking, and financial smarts, plus how Lillian and Zach are investing their auction profits into savings and trading accounts for their futures. > The Hardest Part: A candid look at the emotional resilience it takes for these kids to say goodbye to their animals on auction night, and how that teaches them responsibility like nothing else can. We wrap things up with a live rendition of the 4-H pledge and a message from Zach and Lillian to any local kids thinking about joining the club. ----- Follow the GreeneScene Community Magazine on social media for more: > Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GreeneSceneCommunityMagazine > Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/greenescenecommunitymagazine ----- Executive Producer: Pam Marisa Producers: Vicky Hughes & Sandy Wilson Hosts: Shelly Brown, Dolly Throckmorton, & TR Mahle Audio Editor/Manager: Jacob Ahlbrand ----- For more information on the GreeneScene Community Magazine, visit https://greenescenemagazine.com .
