Master Gardener certification classes will be held at the McCulloch County AgriLife Extension office and will be a combination of virtual training provided by Extension experts, in-person training provided by local Extension personnel and Master Gardeners, and field trips.
The training classes will meet on Thursdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., beginning September 2 through November 4. The course fee is $175 for those who agree to complete the requirements to certify as a Texas Master Gardener. A discount is offered for couples who agree to share the handbook, making the fee $270 for both. The course fee for anyone who does not agree to complete the TMG requirements is $200 with no discount for couples. If paid with a credit card through Square, there is an additional fee to cover the processing charges and can be paid at this site.
A non-refundable deposit of $50.00 is required with application. Payment in full is due no later than the first class day.
