 Master Gardeners who complete the course are expected to return some service to the community. Although it is expected that participants will help educate other citizens concerning horticulture, it is not mandatory. Opportunities for service include talking to church and civic clubs, conducting plant clinics, working on community garden projects and answering horticulture related questions.
Registration fee for the class is $130 per person. Once class begins, the fee is not refundable. Each student will receive a Master Gardener CD and numerous handouts. Those who complete the class will receive a certificate. Classes will be held at the Extension office located at 44 North 100 East.
