Dr. Carol Miles received the Society Fellow award at the annual meeting of the American Society for Horticultural Science (ASHS) last week in Honolulu, Hawaii.
“Dr. Miles is a tireless visionary who empowers and inspires countless people from local to international levels. Fellows of ASHS are recognized for their contributions to horticulture in the areas of research, teaching, administration, or extension on state, national, and/or international levels. Dr. Miles has certainly achieved this criterion and has also contributed to the objective of ASHS to ‘promote and encourage national and international interest in scientific research and education in horticulture in all its branches’ through her role as an administrator, researcher, extension specialist, and mentor. The impact of her work is visible from local to international spectrums and she has served the community of horticulture and sustainable agriculture through her professionalism and dissemination of research-based information.”
