Master Gardener News
NEW! Washington Green School
Inaugural Year starts with New Master Gardener Students for Stevens County!
“Planting the Seeds of Knowledge”
Our new Master Gardener students are just beginning to sprout on their learning journey!
In this Plant Identification class, they’re soaking up knowledge like roots drawing in water—preparing to branch out and share what they’ve learned with the community. Each seed of understanding they plant today will bloom into a future of education, inspiration, and greener gardens for all.
