CONGRATULATIONS TO LOCAL POND CONTRACTOR FOR RECEIVING COMMUNITY AWARD  

Mark S. King, owner of The Pond Doctor in Warrenton, Virginia and a nationally recognized water garden/aquascape industry expert, has been honored with The Fauquier County Master Gardeners Association's 2017 Community Partnership Award.

The award recognizes King's collaboration with the Virginia Cooperative Extension Master Gardeners to raise awareness of the importance and value of water gardens, ponds and features in landscapes, and encourage and promote sustainable gardening, horticultural and conservational practices. The award was presented Thursday, Dec. 7, at the association's annual holiday banquet in Warrenton, Virginia.

"With this award, we would like to thank and recognize Mark for his outstanding contributions and generosity to the Extension Master Gardeners in 2017," said Janet Nixdorff, President of the Fauquier County Master Gardener Association. "Throughout the year, Mark gave generously of his knowledge, his professional expertise and even his staff and materials. Collectively, his actions directly strengthened our educational and community service capabilities - two core values of our organization."

Congratulations Mark and The Pond Doctor!
