Do you like plants? Do you like talking about plants? Do you know just a little, or maybe more, about plants? Do you like potting plants, and cutting flowers, and digging in the soil? Do you haunt the big box stores for plants on sale, or look for plant swap sites on social media? Are you obsessed with plants?

If this describes you, then you may be a candidate for our 2024 Pender County Extension Master Gardener Volunteer class! We are looking for those people who are interested in plants, like talking with other people about plants, and are willing to volunteer time to share their love to plants with the community.

Come join us and become a Pender County Extension Master Gardener Volunteer. You will meet some wonderful people who share your interest, and you will have a good time while doing it.

Submit an application for our next class, which starts January 10, 2024. The class is every Wednesday for 17 weeks, from 9 A.M. to 12 P.M. at the NCSU Cooperative Extension Office located at 801 S. Walker Street, Burgaw, North Carolina, 28425.
