Beginning April 5, 2021, you can begin the journey to becoming an Extension Master Gardener℠ volunteer (EMGV). New for 2021 is the delivery of the course; offering the same great program, but from the safety and comfort of your home. Virtual delivery also means flexibility to meet your schedule. The 12-week virtual program will include weekly class gatherings with the instructor, reading and homework assignments, quizzes, and fun, interactive activities for everyone. Cost for the training is $125.00
Upon completion of the course, you’ll enter a one-year internship, where you are required to volunteer 40 hours in your choice of many community activities. Interns also are encouraged to join the Master Gardener℠ volunteers of Gaston County, where you will meet other folks who have completed the process. Once the Internship is completed, you’ll become a Certified Extension Master Gardener℠ volunteer and commit to 20 hours of volunteer service and 10 continuing education hours per year thereafter.
