The Master Gardener Program is a two-part educational and outreach program. Avid gardeners are provided many hours of intense home horticulture training and in return they "payback" local university extension centers through volunteerism. Master Gardeners provide up-to-date information on horticulture and environmentally responsible gardening practices. They assist with garden lectures, exhibits, demonstrations, school and community gardening, phone diagnostic service, research and many other projects. If you are interested in making a positive impact on your community, consider becoming a certified Master Gardener. If you would like more information on the program or have gardening questions contact you local Extension office or the state Home and Garden Center at www.ladybug.uconn.edu/
