The South-Central chapter of the Virginia Cooperative Extension Master Gardener Volunteers invites residents of Brunswick, Lunenburg, Nottoway, or Mecklenburg counties to contact their local units for informational interviews about becoming a Master Gardener Volunteer. Extension Master Gardeners (EMGs) are trained volunteer educators who engage with their communities by providing horticultural outreach and education.

The course requires no prior experience to apply and is designed to equip participants with essential knowledge, covering topics from basic to advanced levels.

Training takes place every Thursday on January 9, 2025 – April 24, 2025, 1-4pm at the Mecklenburg Extension Office in Boydton, VA.
