Extension Master Gardeners are trained volunteers who provide research-based horticultural information to the public through a variety of activities. Training begins each year in September with weekly online training sessions and in-person activities. Classes end in early December and new volunteers must contribute 40 hours of volunteer work the following year.
We are seeking a Volunteer Engagement Assistant to provide year-round administrative, organization, and programmatic support for the Extension Master Gardener (EMG) and Extension Master Food Volunteer (EMFV) programs.
