Once the course is completed, participants will be able to:
- Design a garden
- Match plant needs to garden locations
- Propagate plants using a variety of methods and techniques
- Identify issues and develop effective management strategies
- Promote pollinators
- Educate communities about the science of gardening
Participants will have access to the online course materials from January 17-June 30, 2024. The course price includes access to the online course, a physical copy of The Ohio State University Master Gardener Volunteer manual, a volunteer name tag, a t-shirt and lab materials. A background check (fee not included in course price) is required before volunteering activities can begin.
