 >Tom Mulczynski</strong></em> </span>is a retired economist\, a mushroom f
 an since the fifth grade\, and has been growing mushrooms ever since he le
 arned to grow shiitakes on logs in June of 2017.&nbsp\; Since then he has 
 cultivated over sixteen different types of mushrooms\, both indoors and ou
 tside in his garden and around the house. While he&rsquo\;s waiting for mu
 shrooms to fruit\, he grows pumpkins on his front lawn (to the delight of 
 the neighborhood kids and their parents)\, tends his garden\, feeds birds\
 , and gets his exercise chasing bunnies from his garden.</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>
 <em><strong>UME Master Gardeners</strong></em> are volunteers who combine 
 their love of plants\, people\, and the environment to help residents in t
 heir communities solve problems and make environmentally-sound decisions.&
 nbsp\;They support the University of Maryland Extension (UME) mission by e
 ducating residents about safe\, effective and sustainable horticultural pr
 actices that build healthy gardens\, landscapes\, and communities. The UME
  Master Gardener Program began in 1978 as a means to extend science-based 
 knowledge to the general public by providing horticultural and pest manage
 ment expertise to help protect and improve Maryland&rsquo\;s natural resou
 rces. Today\, this popular program can be found in 20 Maryland counties an
 d Baltimore City.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p></p>\n<p>Take a look at these resources a
