Learn to be a better home gardener and steward of the environment this winter with Washington State University Extension’s new online Home Horticulture Training program.

The training focuses on a wide range of horticulture topics taught online by WSU faculty, staff, Master Gardeners, and other regional experts on Saturday mornings from 9 a.m. to noon, starting Jan. 9 and continuing weekly through Apr. 24.

The training also includes access to WSU Extension’s online Master Gardener Training Modules and the extensive Master Gardener Manual.

Participants can earn a certificate of completion by completing weekly online quizzes, a final, and attend most classes. Homework is expected to average 3-5 hours a week. All training is open book, and no memorization is expected.

Tuition is $300 and requires a computer with internet access, an e-mail account, and a Zoom account. Registration closes on Dec. 18, 2020. Visit the Master Gardener website for more information and to register.
