How to Become a Master Gardener<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Certified WSU Chelan-Douglas Master Gardeners are university-trained volunteers who contribute talents and time to provide the community with relevant, unbiased, research-based horticulture and environmental stewardship education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earning certified WSU Master Gardener status involves acceptance into the program, successful completion of the on-line Washington Green School coursework, regular attendance at in-person local skills classes and completion of an internship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maintaining certified WSU Chelan-Douglas Master Gardener status requires volunteering 35 hours in the program and completing 10 hours of continuing education annually.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n
