Eric Larson

Master Gardener Coordinator


Born in the Midwest, routed through Kentucky, detoured in Pennsylvania where I attended the Longwood Gardens Professional Gardeners Program. My journey then went through Southampton, NY and Chattanooga TN until I ended up at Haverford College in Pennsylvania as supervisor of the Arboretum Crew. After 15 years, I came to New Haven as the manager of Yale’s Marsh Botanical Garden. After 15 years, I sort of retired and accepted the job happily as Coordinator of the Master Gardener program for New Haven County.
