Master Gardener Training Classes 

Hybrid Training will begin February 23. Applications due February 5. There will be ten classes at the Vermilion County Extension Office in Danville. Some classes may take place via zoom depending on COVID. Students must be available Tuesday morning starting in mid-February thru April. We plan to hold field trips to community gardens and local greenhouses.

The Hybrid Option is limited to a select number of students. Seats are reserved upon receipt of payment and registration forms which includes a background check.

The class price is based on class choice and a commitment to volunteer 60hours within 2 years. Partial financial assistance is available for need-based applicants. An extensive manual developed by University of Illinois educators for gardeners in Illinois is included in the class price.
