Online Extension Master Gardener Training Coming in August

By Connect-Bridgeport Staff on August 04, 2022

WVU Extension is once again offering online Master Gardener training classes starting Aug. 25.
 
To sign up, contact your local WVU Extension Office to sign up and complete all necessary paperwork.
 
All prospective trainees must undergo the WVU Extension Volunteer Selection Process. This process includes background checks, references, and an interview. The registration deadline is Aug. 17.
 
There is a charge for the manuals, $40 if you wish to have the digital version, and $85 for the printed books.
 
Participants in the program will have the opportunity to learn more about gardening and horticulture in areas such as plant propagation, garden animals, pest management, composting, and many others.
 
Specific to Harrison County, participants will have the opportunity to interact face-to-face with other Harrison County class participants during monthly check-ins throughout the course. During these face-to-face class viewings, participants will also learn more about the Harrison County Master Gardeners and programs that they offer.
 
You can learn more about the WVU Extension Master gardener program at: https://extension.wvu.edu/lawn-gardening-pests/master-gardener-program
 
For more information or to make an application for the class, contact the WVU Harrison County Extension Office at 304-624-8650 or email Jennifer Friend, jefriend@mail.wvu.edu
