Our horticulture areas of specialization include sustainable landscapes, home garden vegetable production, youth gardening and volunteer development.
With the assistance of the Master Gardener Program Coordinator, our horticulture Extension Educator directs the program. Training for the Canyon County Master Gardener and Advanced Master Gardener is a the equivalent of a three credit college class. a Sisteen week 40 hour classroom training teaching about the science of horticulture is followed up by a 40 hour practicum where volunteers apply what they learned in their training by sharing their research based knowledge with their communities.
