Our 2022 Master Gardener class is newly graduated! Twenty-one devoted individuals took weekly classes for 6 months and learned about:
  • Soils and fertilizers
  • Basic horticulture and botany
  • Growing fruit and vegetables
  • Water wise and sustainable landscaping
  • Gardening for pollinators
  • Integrated pest management
  • Plant identification

And much more!

What's Ahead for our Program

We hope to see you at our classes this summer at a local library near you, or at the Agricultural Center in Modesto. You can also find us at the Stanislaus County Fair weekends during July 8-17 in our booth just outside the front of the Horticulture Building.

Future Training Classes

Our program is modeled after the UCCE San Joaquin Master Gardeners, which train every-other-year. This means we will not have a training class for new Master Gardeners in 2023.

Schedule
