Master Gardeners share their special interests in horticulture and the skills they acquire in Master Gardener training with the community in various ways. They answer plant and gardening questions from homeowners. They help design and operate exhibits,displays and demonstrations. And, they make presentations to both large and small groups.
They complete an extensive training course and must volunteer 60 hours of time back to the Extension office.
All volunteers working with youth are screened prior to undertaking assignments.
