Master Gardener Basic Training is designed to provide experienced home gardeners with the information and skills necessary to serve as volunteers who share their experience and knowledge with others in their communities. Classes are taught by Penn State Horticulture Educators, Program Assistants, and Master Gardeners. Topics covered include: botany, plant propagation, insects and diseases, plant identification, vegetables, native plants, pruning, diagnostics, and much more. After successfully completing Basic Training, volunteers move into the apprenticeship phase of the program during which they work alongside certified Master Gardeners to further increase their knowledge and gain valuable experience. To be considered for certification as Master Gardeners, apprentices are expected to provide 50 hours of volunteer service and meet all apprenticeship requirements.
