The Master Gardener Program is a Kansas State University Extension program that helps gardeners learn more about growing and caring for plants. New gardeners are trained each year. The 56 hour class meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays in February and March. This is followed by a commitment of a minimum of 40 hours of volunteer time during their first year. Thereafter, 10 hours of volunteer time and 10 hours of continuing education are required each year to remain in the Master Gardener Program.
You can become a Master Gardener if you are willing to learn about horticulture and share your knowledge with others.
