There's still time to apply to become a UCCE Stanislaus County Master Gardener. The deadline has been extended until September 3, 2021. We plan to hold the weekly training classes on Thursdays, starting January 20, 2022 from 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. ending on May 26, 2022*.
Did you know?
- You don't need to be a gardening expert to become a Master Gardener.
- Trainees learn from University experts about low water use landscaping, vegetable and fruit gardening, composting, integrated pest management, and much more!
- Master Gardener grads volunteer 50 hours the first year and 25 hours the following years.
- Volunteer opportunities include teaching classes, staffing a booth at outreach events, working in our demonstration gardens, and answering Help Line calls.
- You don't have to be a speaker to be a Master Gardener. There are plenty of opportunities to work behind the scenes.
You must be Stanislaus County resident to apply. For other county programs, visit http://mg.ucanr.edu/FindUs/
