Master Gardener Volunteer Program

Master Gardeners are volunteers who provide information to area residents on gardening, lawn care, trees and shrubs, flowers, and fruits. They also work with children and adults in numerous UW-Extension projects and gardens in Kenosha County.

Master Gardener Volunteer Training is offered once a year in late winter through spring. The 2008 program is full and closed. If you are interested in receiving information on the Master Gardener Volunteer Program next fall, please send your name and address to Barb Larson, Kenosha County Horticulture Educator.
