Newbies: Cindy Runnels

Cindy & Her Dog Mais

It’s time to get better acquainted with one of our newer MLGSCA members.  Cindy Runnels is the director of the Health Sciences Library at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Bellflower, CA.  She started in the position last August.  Cindy’s also been a lecturer at the School of Library and Information Science, San Jose State University for almost four years.  Previously she was at West Coast University and Santa Ana College and her internships were at California State University, Fullerton and Golden West College.

Cindy says she’s an “avid cook, appreciative foodie, and a well-intentioned but less than    dedicated gardener.”  She’s “especially fond of heirloom tomatoes and tries to grow a couple of new varieties every year.”  For those of you that also grow heirloom tomatoes or know people that do, if you have “suggestions for varieties that grow well in small, So Cal gardens,” Cindy would love to hear from you.

    Yay for another heirloom tomato grower! I had great success with Green Zebra tomatoes last year; they practically took over the house and yard!

    I’d be happy to share tips and tricks, as well as seeds, with Cindy or anyone else who’s into growing heirloom veggies. Feel free to get in touch!

    And Cindy, welcome to MLGSCA!

    Thanks for your warm welcome and your tips, Janet. My house has been overrun by Braod Ripple Yellow Currant tomatoes–haven’t planted one in years, yet they’re everywhere. 🙂 If you ever want seeds, let me know!
