Master gardener training creates volunteers By DEAN FOSDICK Associated Press Like gardening? Want to share your skills with your community or family? Master Gardener programs are creating an army of volunteers who contribute hours of stewardship. Specialties run the gamut, although most focus on nutrition. There are Master Food Preservers, Master Beekeepers, Master Recyclers, Master Naturalists, Master Wellness Volunteers, Master Financial Volunteers, Master Clothing Construction Volunteers, Watershed Master Volunteers and many more. Certified Master programs usually are provided by university Extension services and their countyrun offices. The programs require several months of science-based training in classrooms and in the field. Volunteers, who pay a fee for the instruction, are certified upon graduating and committing to a specified period of service. They share what they’ve learned about skills ranging from safe canning practices to raising organic vegetables, from restoring streambeds to energy conservation. Some specialties address regional or consumer interests. Kentucky’s Master Clothing Construction program was designed to foster family sewing skills. The Master Wellness program run by Texas A&M AgriLife Extension provides health and nutrition tips. Montana State’s Master Family & Consumer Science Volunteer program helps teach volunteers the history of Cooperative Extension and consumer sciences, said program manager Barbara Allen. “We need volunteers to have good backgrounds on
their mission. They in turn will help folks at the county level launch Master Volunteer programs,” she said. Public funding for Extension services has dropped sharply over the years while information requests have risen, often overwhelming staff, Allen said. “Our hope is these volunteers help alleviate some of that Extension workload,” she said. “That they provide more outreach. The idea is to empower and educate the general public.” The Oregon State University Extension Service’s Master Beekeeper program has 145 volunteer mentors who train apprentice-level beekeepers, said spokeswoman Kym Pokorny. “Many of these mentors are also in the advanced level (program),” she said. “This level emphasizes community service.” Mentor beekeepers have contributed more than 4,200 volunteer hours since beginner-level training began in 2013, Pokorny said. The 398 volunteers in Oregon State’s Master Food Preservers program donated 21,250 hours last year, while the state’s 1,900 active Master Gardeners recorded 71,221 direct public interactions, she said. Master Gardeners “volunteered nearly 145,000 hours of service valued at $3.3 million,” Pokorny said. “They gave food banks approximately 65,000 pounds of fresh produce harvested from community and demonstration gardens that they manage.” Arizona recently incorporated a Master Naturalist program that is being tested in Tucson and will go statewide, said Peter WarSee Training p. 2D

Design show features projects meant to lift up communities By KATHERINE ROTH Associated Press NEW YORK — “By the People: Designing a Better America” is not your typical design show. There is no posh furniture, and any glitz comes intertwined with grit. The show is a paean to local ingenuity and “can do” spirit. These are designs intended to save lives or improve the quality of life for communities in need. The show, on view at the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum here through Feb. 26, features 60 design projects from across the country. Some aim to expand access to education, food, health care and affordable housing. Others are meant to increase social and economic inclusion or improve alternative transportation. The vast exhibit was organized by Cynthia E. Smith, the museum’s curator of socially responsible design, who logged over 50,000 miles and devoted over two years to exploring shrinking post-industrial cities, sprawling metropolitan areas, struggling rural towns, and places hit by disasters or poverty, in search of inspiring design projects. “I traveled to places of persistent poverty, to Indian reservations. One big takeaway is that poverty is often hidden, but it is all around us,” Smith says. “I hope people going through the exhibit begin to see that the causes of poverty are old and complex, and so the design solutions to various aspects are also complex.” For instance, the exhibit features Cleveland’s Evergreen Cooperatives, meant to build wealth for low-in-
come residents while reducing the area’s carbon footprint. The cooperatives, which include a green laundry, an alternative-energy enterprise and a hydroponic greenhouse, provide training and create jobs, while also serving area hospitals and businesses. Also in Cleveland, the Collinwood Community Center, built on the site of a sprawling former K-mart store, has turned a blighted eyesore into a colorful community hub with pools, gyms and other facilities. Around the country, Smith says, abandoned strip malls are being redesigned and converted by communities into libraries, schools, museums, day care centers and flea markets. In Texas, the Rapido Rapid Recovery Housing program rethinks the model for large-scale rebuilding after natural disasters. Instead of bringing in temporary mobile homes for dis-
placed families — and later building homes that might not suit their needs — Rapido quickly deploys a 400-square-foot “core” housing unit containing a living space, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom on a family’s property. While the disaster-relief application process gets underway, architects and contractors work with families to expand and customize the unit. This allows families to live on their own property — and in their own home — during reconstruction, and quickly find themselves with a completed house that they helped design. The show also includes futuristic, fuel-efficient commuter vehicles made of aluminum and steel, with tiny moped motors. The vehicles were created by a Michigan design team called “The Future People” to get people around cities and suburbs at minimal cost, with room for gro-
ceries or other supplies. In farming communities across the United States and in Canada and Britain, a coalition of makers, engineers and farmers builds “Farm Hack Tools,” including pedal-powered tractors with features like customizable, 3D-printed seeder wheels. The show begins with a section on design solutions to improve interactions between police officers and the communities they serve. In Chicago, for instance, a basketball court was built on a vacant lot attached to a police station to encourage interaction. As the exhibit continues up a side staircase, charts show housing costs and the salaries required to afford them in various parts of New York City. In the museum’s Process Lab, visitors of all ages can try coming up with their See Design p. 2D

Design meets downward dog in new yoga mats
Design from 1D
By KIM COOK Associated Press While comfortable clothes and the right teacher are important, a cool mat can make yoga more enticing and enjoyable. Forget that plain, boring slab of rubber; yoga mats now come in a variety of designs. You can stretch on a faux sand beach or rippling lake, or do your cobra on a faux Persian carpet. Here’s a roundup of some of the most stylish mats (choosing a favorite may be harder than aligning your chakras): Yoga Design Lab’s Horizon mat features a photo print of a sunset over gently lapping waves. The Tribeca Sand mat has a prismatic pattern in warm jewel hues. (www.yogadesignlab.com ) Scenic vistas are also brought to you by Yogamatic, where waterfalls, beaches and deserts are depicted in vibrant digital prints. One mat with a hypnotic image of swimming carp is by Los Angeles photographer Jennifer Cawley. Or her sepia-toned image of Edward, a teddy bear plopped on a comfy-looking bed, would help soothe a stressed-out stretcher. City dwellers might like the views of the Chicago or Manhattan skylines. A portion of sales of a mat printed with luscious orange slices goes to New York’s Food Bank. (www.yogamatic.com ) Designer Sophie Lenninger of Oakland, California, creates eye-catching mats, including one referencing Uzbek Suzani patterns in a palette of pink, green and aqua. Aztec motifs of rain clouds and cactus flowers enliven her El Nino mat. And she’s got a range of mats for children too, in happy Hawaiian, Southwest and Provencal prints. (www.magiccarpetym.com ) Surfboard artist Drew Brophy has illustrated some kids’ mats with hip ‘60s-style prints of suns, rainbows, turtles and waves. (www.spiritualrevolutionyoga.com ) Brooklynite Kyle deWoody, founder and creative director of gallery and art shop Grey Area, commissioned work from seven artists for a collection of yoga mats. Among them are Daniel Arsham’s haunting tonal image of the moon in inky outer space, and Eric Cahan’s sunset over East Hampton, which creates a meditative mood. (www.thegreyarea.com ) Yoloha Yoga’s cork mats, with simple, laser-engraved dream catcher and wildflower designs, can be personalized. (www.yolohayoga.com ) You can store your rolled-up mat in a neat bag, like the one from Brogamats that looks like a log. Or channel your inner “Hunger Games” character by toting your mat in a bag that looks like a leather quiver. (www.brogamats.com ) Some pretty mat bags and yoga ball covers are made by the Thai and Nepali women artisans of Global Groove, a fair trade organization. There are ikat, peacock and geometric prints in low-key color palettes, all made of 100 percent cotton. (www.alternativesglobalmarketplace.com )

Warren said. “The problem in the West is that we’re really spread out. It’s hard to serve the population that way. Our Masters really help.”
sections — Act, Save, Share, Live, Learn and Make — the show is the third in a series devoted to socially responsible design, but the first of the series to focus on communities in the United States.
The exhibit will not travel beyond New York, but is accompanied by a hefty catalog, featuring details about each project and interviews with the designers, as well as a chapter by Smith.

Existing US home sales fell in December By JOSH BOAK AP Economics WASHINGTON — Americans retreated from purchasing homes in December, as the number of properties listed for sale sank to its lowest level since 1999. The National Association of Realtors said Tuesday that sales of existing homes fell 2.8 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.49 million. For all of 2016, sales posted an annual gain of 3.8 percent to 5.45 million. But the housing market has become trapped by a supply shortage that has pushed prices higher and may limit the potential for additional sales growth. Homebuyers simply have fewer choices, as new construction has yet to meet demand and existing homeowners have been reluctant to list their properties for sale. “Home buying is likely to face additional headwinds going forward, which include low inventory levels, rebounding prices and higher mortgage rates,” said Admir Kolaj, an analyst at TD Bank, who
added that these factors are unlikely to “completely derail” the housing market. Just 1.65 million homes were listed for sale in December. This marks a 6.3 percent drop from a year ago to the smallest total since 1999. The tight supplies pushed the median sales price to $232,200 last month, up 4 percent from a year ago. Homebuyers were able to manage the rising sales prices in part because of low mortgage rates in 2016, but those rates have climbed upward and settled above 4 percent since Donald Trump’s presidential victory. The financial markets expect that Trump will try to stimulate economic growth through deficit spending, which caused the rates to rise on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note and mortgages. The Realtors estimate that rising mortgage rates in recent months increased the typical monthly payment by $75, or $900 a year.
It’s possible that rising mortgage rates are causing more people to buy homes earlier than they otherwise would in hopes of locking in lower monthly payments. “When that activity dies down, we’re not sure where the next wave of buyers is coming from,” said Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said last week that the rate on 30-year fixed-rate loans averaged 4.09 percent from 4.12 percent. That was dramatically higher than a 30-year rate that averaged 3.65 percent for all of 2016, the lowest level recorded from records going back to 1971. In December, sales fell in the Northeast, Midwest and West, while staying unchanged in the South, according to the Realtors.
