    Yay! I have been a Master Gardener in my county since 2010! I actually made history as the first black Master Gardener in my county. You will love the program! This year I was the chairperson for the shade gardens and proud to say I was in charge of an amazing team! I will keep the position for next year and they gave me the go-ahead to redesign the space if I choose to! How exciting!!!

    There is NO WAY that you don’t get accepted into the program! I’m sure the panel loved you and your proposal to bring the master gardener program to RUclips. Happy for you in advance. 👏🏼

    I'm sure you'll get accepted! I'm currently a Master Gardener trainee and the coursework is definitely in depth and extensive but I'm sure you already know most of it based off of your videos.

    Hi Janey, you will be surprised how much you know already. I live in West Michigan and took the Master Gardeners program with Michigan State. What a fabulous program! Everything is science based, I learned so much and met so many wonderful people. I volunteer at the local extension garden and am so happy I did this, good luck! 🌼🐝

  • @mildyweinstein7853
    @mildyweinstein7853 2 года назад +2

    Awesome, You will be an asset to the program. I trained in 2017 in Santa Clara County. It is one of the best things I did, love the organization, meeting more MG’s and being with gardening nerds. The training is intense but the mentors are so supportive and helping. I love working with the public and as a retired teacher getting to provide science based gardening field trips for local schools.

  • @diannejumper6556

    @MarigoldsintheGarden 2 года назад

    Congratulations Janey. I am so happy for you. You are perfect for a master gardener program as you are brimming over with your love of gardening and you are so clever. This will be a great opportunity to combine both the science of plants, or botany, and the art of creating beautiful garden landscapes. 🌳 Wouldn’t it be lovely if you could help some of your patients by teaching and encouraging them to learn safe ways to do their own garden? 🪴🌷I know from my own personal experience with my autoimmune condition, that gardening helps both the body and mind. It gives you such joy and peace. There is no better place to be than in the garden. 😊🥀🌻🌱🌺🌾

    You will love being a Master Gardener! There isn't anything better than being around like minded folks. Some have become my best friends. I've been a member in my county in Texas since 2008. Love your enthusiasm.

    @avon1950 2 года назад +1

    Good morning - this is your Master Gardener from the State of Georgia. Great decision you have made to become a Master Gardener. You will definitely enjoy and learn a great deal from the program. You have demonstrated such enthusiasm towards all aspects of gardening. I wish you the best in your endeavors and keep up the good work. Today’s communities needed more individuals like you so wish to share their knowledge without looking for money as a reward. Again, keep up the good work! Talk with you soon. Avon

  • @jenniferhooks2454
    @jenniferhooks2454 2 года назад +3

    I am so proud of you for applying to the Master Gardener program! You will learn a lot, but you have been really good at educating yourself about plants and gardening. I cannot imagine how they would not want to a knowledgeable, enthusiastic gardener like yourself in the program. You go girl!

    This is right in your wheelhouse, Janey! That's awesome!
    Thanks for explaining what the program entails in your area. I was curious about it, actually.
    So proud of you!
    You have a ton on your plate!

  • @susanmurlmoran
    @susanmurlmoran 2 года назад +2

    You will gain so much from and be an asset to the Master Gardener program. I became a MG in 2014 through the University of Missouri Extension. I would encourage others to look into your local/state program. My training was twice a week for about 8 weeks and was offered during the day and of an evening and currently, on-line. My real education began after the classes, when I began working in the gardens and learning along side experienced gardeners. Thankfully, we had no interview for our class of 50 and no test at the end, but a project instead. Happy learning in the garden!

  • @kathleenscholten8592
    @kathleenscholten8592 2 года назад +2

    Hi Janey, I'm surprised they didn't invite you to join the program on the spot. You are already sharing your knowledge with your neighbors and subscribers. I'm thrilled for you! 🌼 🌹

    I'm a Master Gardener in zone 5B suburbs of Chicago and a content creator as well. I loved the program and the gardeners are a great group of people!

  • @pamhouglan4710
    @pamhouglan4710 2 года назад

    I took the Master Gardener classes in Guilford County NC years ago & learned so much! At that time the rules were that the “Master Gardener” title couldn’t be used for profit. I’m sure the rules have changed in all that time & are different in CA too. All county cooperative extension services need to be accessible online so you will be a great asset for the Master Gardener Program.
    Wishing you the best of luck BUT I’m sure you’ll be accepted.
    💜🌿🙏🏻💜🤞🌸💜

    How cool and exciting!! I am so happy for you, and you will ace this! After meeting you in person and watching your videos, how could they not accept you, especially with 20K subscribers (congratulations!!)?! I remember when you started out, and I knew right away that you were someone special, and I am sure they saw that as well. Like you said, this program is challenging, but you've got this! I considered the program, however I am much too shy to do public presentations, but I am looking forward to you sharing your journey to becoming a Master Gardener.

    I just found and subscribed to your channel. I'm glad I found a channel from the Central Valley. I live in Merced county, about 100 miles south of you and I'm right on the new zone 9A/9B border. So what you do in the garden should be close to what I experience.
    I was accepted for the Merced county MG program this week and start my classes in January! Now off I go to watch your MG playlist!

This is going to be a busy year for you taking the MG class, preparing your new cutting garden, and getting ready for the Pence Garden Tour. I can't wait to hear more about your experience with the MG program.

    It's so funny that you mentioned this. I have looked into the Master Gardener program here in Henry County, Indiana which is through a Perdue extension. I am going to start Master Gardener classes myself! I'm so happy for you. Ours is a bit different, we don't have to apply and interview. We just take the classes, get training and then we get our certification; if we pass our final exam to become a Master Gardener. We also have to volunteer so many hours per year as well. I'm excited!

Hopefully this will not interfere with you getting ready for the garden tour. As well not interfering with your bigger flower garden that you just required. I don't want to see you burning yourself out doing so much. I know that you will enjoy what you are doing. Enjoy and my fingers are crossed.

    @deannadelabretonne5044 2 года назад

    So excited for you and just a little bit jealous that I don't live in your county! They sound like they will be amazing to work with. I went to an info class to become a MG in my county, but was not impressed in the least with the leadership. I was taken aback by the fact that I would not be able to share my gardening knowledge unless I was in an official volunteer position, unless I didn't mention I was a Master Gardener. Since the program would control my interactions with the gardening community I so want to help learn and grow, I felt that the investment financially and time wise simply wasn't worth it for me. I did purchase the Master Gardener text book that you'll be using and it's awesome and intense! I figured if I can garner some of the same knowledge, I would still be able to make an impact in my community. Good luck and I know you're going to knock 'em dead!

    @thegardensandgraveyardschannel 2 года назад

    Good Luck! I am a Master Gardener in my county. It’s hard because I’m my state (Oregon) I can not use my MG title to earn an income. So I have to be careful to only mention my MG title when I am volunteering for the program. Thankfully I have a degree in horticulture and 15 years of professional experience to lean on without that title. The program has been a good place to talk garden with locals. I hope you enjoy it.

  • @danareynolds4069
    @danareynolds4069 2 года назад

    Congratulations! You WILL be an awesome MG! Your program sounds very much like mine in Pima County (Tucson, AZ). I remember the anticipation and excitement going through the application process and the semester class. I graduated 2017 and have since been very active. The learning and camaraderie are the best! This year I took on a leadership role as a committee chair and I’ve been struggling with a little bit of burnout. Thank you for this video, it reminded me of why I applied 5 years ago and I feel re-energized and excited again. 😊 🌱 🪴 💚
