2013 Master Gardener Registration Now Open

The Pickens/Oconee/Anderson Master Gardener Program will begin Monday, February 11, 2013, and will last until June 3, 2013, with weekly meetings taking place on Mondays from 9:00 a.m. -- 12:00 noon. 

The meeting place will be at the SC DNR Building in Clemson near Twin Lakes with some classes at the Hayden Conference Center at the SC Botanical Garden. Clemson Extension Agents, Clemson University professors, and Master Gardeners will serve as weekly instructors. 

This class offers research-based horticultural information in an exciting and educational format. Participants use this new knowledge to serve the local communities by educating others.

A Master Gardener is defined as an individual who learns about the art and science of horticulture and shares that information with others.

Enrollment is limited, and is based on a first-come first-served basis.  While this program is targeted toward residents of Pickens, Oconee, Anderson counties, people from other counties may also be admitted to the program. 

The cost for the Master Gardener Program is $300.00 per person.  This fee will cover all materials and resources needed for the course.
