Community Gardener Certificate Series

Are you just getting started gardening? Have you wanted to learn what Master Gardeners learn, but haven't had the time? The OSU/Lane County Extension Service has a program just for you, the "Community Gardener Certificate Series." This series of eight classes, taught by Master Gardeners, will help you learn the fundamentals of successful gardening. The cost of the full series is $80 per person to be paid before the first day of class. Included in the price is the Master Gardener manual "Sustainable Gardening." Participants attending a minimum of six classes will receive a Community Gardener Certificate at the conclusion of the program.

You may sign-up for individual classes at a cost of $7 each without the manual. The manual is available for an additional $35. Pre-register and pre-pay at the OSU/Lane County Extension office by filling out and returning the form at the bottom of this page. Drop-ins welcome for individual classes. For more information call 682-4243 or 800-872-8980 if out of the local Eugene/Springfield area. Sign up early! Each 2½-hour seminar begins at 6:30 p.m. in the OSU/Lane County Extension Service Auditorium at 950 West 13th Avenue, Eugene, OR. No refunds are available for this program.
