Georgia Master Gardener Program

There are thousands of trained Master Gardeners serving their communities across Georgia. They are required to attend a several-week course and then to give back many hours of volunteer time before being named Master Gardeners. Marco Fonseca tells how anyone can apply to be in this volunteer educational program.
