This program is open to all New Jersey residents.

Classroom lectures taught by Rutgers and green industry experts are held weekly from September through March. Then, hands-on gardening classes meet weekly for three-hour sessions from April through mid-September (every other week in summer).

Topics covered in the program include: sound gardening techniques; composting; creative methods of conserving resources, horticulture therapy and caring for demonstration vegetable and herb gardens. The program also requires participants to volunteer some hours of service towards Extension projects in a county park, activities and events throughout the year.

Upon graduation from the program, Master Gardeners become community volunteers trained in earth-friendly gardening and environmental principles.

There is a $425 tuition fee that covers books and materials.
