Become a Master Gardener volunteer
Join a network of passionate community members across the state dedicated to learning and sharing research-based information, enhancing their communities through volunteer service, and connecting people with the benefits of gardening through education and outreach by becoming an NC State Extension Master Gardener volunteer.
These volunteers are an essential component of N.C. State Extension and assist local county horticulture agents in various aspects of home horticulture — from answering gardening questions to becoming involved with and teaching in school and community gardens. Volunteers are involved in a wide variety of activities throughout Haywood County and receive ongoing advanced training programs year-round.
Classes will start on Sept. 19, 2024. For more information and an application, visit go.ncsu.edu/haywoodemgv or call 828.456.3575.
