Happy New Year!

Happy New Year from your friends at Copperfield Hill.  We wish you good health and prosperity in 2020.

It’s a new year and a new decade.  Did you know that the United Nations (UN) designates specific years to mark particular events and topics to bring a greater awareness to a subject or organization?

2020 has been declared by the United Nations as the International Year of Plant Health*. The UN will continue to recognize and promote healthy ecosystems as key to sustainable development.

The American Phytopathological Society (APS) states the overall objective is to raise awareness of the importance of, and the impacts of plant health in regards to global issues, such as hunger, poverty, threats to environment and economic development. Healthy plants are vital to the overall health of an environment and biodiversity. Healthy plants are also key to sustaining a global food supply.
