Hello! My name is Jackie Underwood, and I am the new Program Assistant. I have lived here in Mclean County my entire life. I am married to Nathan Underwood and have four (not so little ) kiddos, Ely, Gavin, Maddie, and Jessa. I also have several fur babies. My husband and I have chicken houses along with a seasonal greenhouse business. I love pretty much all flowers, but zinnias would have to be one of my all-time favorites.
I am excited about joining the Mclean County Extension team. I will be offering programs starting in October. My first is a succulent desert garden featuring a pumpkin pot. I look forward to working with my community and helping in any way I can. You can reach me by email at jacqueline.underwood@uky.edu, or the office at 270-273-3690.
