If you have ever contemplated becoming a volunteer in the Master Gardener program, this is your chance! The Vance/Warren Master Gardener program will hold an Open House on Tuesday, July 9, 2019, 10:30 am to 12:30 pm at the Vance County Regional Farmers Market.

The public is invited to drop by to meet members of our group and learn more about how to become a volunteer. Applications will be available and light refreshments will be served.

The biennial training class will be held on Tuesday mornings beginning in late July and ending in early November. Upon completion of training, participants are required to contribute 40 hours of service in the Master Gardener program.

Projects include publishing a newsletter, educational workshops, demonstration gardens, public speaking, youth education and more.
