MASTER
GARDENER PROGRAM
In
the spring of 1997, Clark County UW-Extension coordinated the
first ever Master Gardener training sessions in Clark County.
Since that time, 2 more sessions have been held growing the ranks
of certified master gardeners to over 30. The master gardeners
have also organized a local association which is open to the general
public. They call themselves the Over the Garden Gate Gardening
Club and they meet on a monthly basis to talk gardening.
If you wish to become involved with the gardening club, call the
Extension Office at anytime. To help serve the people of
the county, the Master Gardeners have an educational booth at
the county fair, a plant swap at the Clark County fairgrounds
every spring on the Saturday before Mother's Day, and they are
always busy planning more educational opportunities.
Starting in Janaury
2005 there will be specialized fruits and vegetables training
offered through the Master Gardner program.
