Re: Re: OT Flower Pots NOW Master Gardeners


This has always been one of my few gripes with MG courses. They are held at times when lots of potential converts can't attend. Mine were held on Thursdays from noon to 4 PM over a 12 week period. I had to quit my job [no great loss at the time] to take them. Seems to me if they ran them in the evening like JC night courses, they'd attract a lot more people. But maybe they don't want that.

Wow. I'm jealous. Some day...*sigh*...I'll be able to attend the Master Gardener's classes....just can't right now.

By that standard, mine must have been the best deal ever--totally,
completely free. Even the big binder full of materials was free. At
graduation, they gave us each a hat, two aprons, name badge, and
diploma. And then they threw a bar-be-que party for us.

I really believe I got the better end of that $80 deal.


Me, too, Kitty, and for all the reasons you listed. The people I've met in Master Gardeners have been the most knowledgeable, down to earth folks I have met anywhere.
