How To Become A Master Gardener

Applications to become a Master Gardener are taken every other year. Applicants go through a screening and interview process. Once accepted, attendance at all Master Gardener training classes is required to complete the training. Master Gardeners participate in more than 60 hours of classroom instruction on basic botany, vegetables, soils, herbs, wildlife control, insects, turfgrass, flowers, diseases, woody ornamentals, fruits, and pesticide safety.

Following the training sessions, Master Gardener interns are required to complete a 60-hour internship through approved volunteer services.
