2:21 p.m., Dec. 17, 2008----University of Delaware Cooperative Extension in New Castle County is now accepting applications for Master Gardener volunteer educator training.
Training will run Tuesday and Thursday mornings starting March 3 and continuing through May 21.
“This training program is designed to make good educators out of good gardeners,” said Extension Educator Carrie Murphy. “Trainees pledge to devote volunteer time to help Cooperative Extension provide research-based information to the gardening public. Without this volunteer program, we could not reach nearly as many people as we do now.”
Training will consist of horticultural and educational topics, with emphasis on hands-on experience and active learning techniques. There is a training fee of $100. Scholarships are available based on financial need. The application deadline is Feb. 2.
Details on the Master Gardener program, training, and application materials are available on the Master Gardener web site or by contacting Carrie Murphy at [cjmurphy@udel.edu] or (302) 831-2506.
