If you're wondering if you might want to be a Master Gardener, ask yourself these questions:

1. Do I want to learn more about plants, pests, landscaping and gardening?

2. Do I want to participate in an intensive, practical training program?

3. Do I look forward to sharing my knowledge with people in my community?

4. Do I have the time to commit to both the training and the volunteer service?

If you answered "yes" to these questions, then the Master Gardener program could be for you. If you have the desire, commitment and time to learn and want to put your knowledge and skills to work through volunteer service, then apply for admission to the Master Gardener program.

For information, please contact your county Extension agent or the Louisiana Master Gardener Program Office.
