About

Since 1979, the NC State Extension Master Gardener℠ program has recruited, trained, and engaged people to serve as volunteer educators who strengthen Extension’s delivery of science-based horticultural knowledge to North Carolinians. Our mission is to connect people to horticulture through science-based education and outreach that empowers North Carolinians to cultivate healthy plants, landscapes, ecosystems, and communities. Under the guidance and direction of Extension agents, individuals complete a 40-hour training program, pass an examination, and complete at least a 40-hour internship to become certified Master Gardener℠ volunteers. To remain active in the program, volunteers complete a minimum of 20 hours of volunteer service and 10 hours of continuing education each year.Read more at: https://emgv.ces.ncsu.edu/about-the-nc-state-extension-master-gardener-program/
