Volunteerism

Master Gardener Volunteers make a difference in their communities by being a part of  various projects that teach others about horticulture and gardening.

 Our mission statement is: “In partnership with UW-Extension, JCMGV’s strive to promote horticulture through education and service in our communities.”

The specific goals of this organization are:

  1.  To serve the needs of Jefferson County through outreach and horticulture education.
  2.  To encourage continuing education of members by offering speakers, advanced training, and field work.
  3.  To promote community service through volunteer activities.
  4.  To recognize members who meet and maintain certification.
  5.  To provide opportunities for the exchange of ideas to further develop responsible gardening practices.

The Jefferson County Master Gardnener Volunteers are involved in a wide variety of projects around Jefferson County.
