Rotary Roundtable via Zoom – Dewey Mann, Director of Waterman Farm
Join us for Rotary Roundtable via Zoom as Dewey Mann, the Director of Waterman Farm presents to us.
The Waterman Agricultural and Natural Resources Laboratory, commonly referred to as Waterman, has been a priceless educational resource in agriculture, and agricultural best management practices for almost 100 years.
The farm was originally owned by Joseph Waterman, a prominent and well-respected pioneer and agricultural figure in Franklin County, Ohio. Anna M. Waterman, Joseph’s widow, titled the property on to The Ohio State University on July 2, 1923. Since that original transfer, four smaller parcels have been added to the site bringing the total acreage to its current 261 acres. Waterman, located on the Ohio State University campus, holds a wide variety of natural features and facilities to support programming, including the Turfgrass Foundation Research and Education Facility, Waterman Dairy, the Honey Bee Research Lab, tillable land, a woodlot and a stream.
