Master Gardener Training Class Forming

It is time to start applying to be a Master Gardener volunteer. You can find a document explaining what is required to become a Master Gardener and an application on our website athens.osu.edu/program-areas/master-gardener-volunteers . The application is a fill-able PDF that can be saved and emailed  to brown.6000@osu.edu (you must download it to your computer and open it in Adobe before it’s fill-able). You can also mail it or bring it to the office. The deadline is January 5, 2018. We will need a minimum of 10 enrolled in order to hold the classes.

During the week of January 8, we will be holding applicant interviews in order to make sure that everyone knows what they are getting into.

Dates: January 17 – April 11

Time: Wednesday nights 6 PM – 9 PM and Saturday, March 3 & Saturday March 24

Cost: $110

The cost covers travel for expert speakers from around the region and state and a 3-ring binder with hundreds of pages of information on all of the class topics

This class may not be offered again until 2020.

Please contact Ed Brown at the Athens County Extension office with any questions that you might have.
