Laurens County Hosts an In-Person Master Gardener Course

September 12, 2022

The Laurens County Extension Office is currently hosting an in-person Master Gardener course.  The Master Gardener course began on August 16, 2022 and will meet each Tuesday through December 6.  This year’s course has 10 students.

Students in the course will complete 16 three-classes on subjects including lawn care, vegetable gardening, urban tree care, soils and plant nutrition, tree fruits and small fruits, and many more.  Each class is presented by an Extension Agent or a Master Gardener graduate that has experience in the subject matter, which allows them to provide practical experience along with research-based information.

After completing the course the students will provide 40 hours of community service over the next 12 months to become Certified Master Gardeners.
