Upcoming Events and Deadlines

 

JMG Registration

The Junior Master Gardener (JMG) program engages children in hands-on learning experiences that foster a love of gardening, environmental appreciation, and critical thinking. JMG provides education in horticulture, environmental science, leadership, and life skills through fun activities. To become a Certified Junior Master Gardener, participants complete both individual and group tasks for each concept in eight chapters of the JMG Handbook and take part in a leadership or service project per chapter. Topics covered include plant growth, soils, ecology, insects, landscape horticulture, and career exploration in gardening.

This program costs $20 per person. You can deliver your payment to the AgriLife Extension Office at 611 Kimberly Drive Suite 151 Denton, TX, 76208 or pay online. Online payments have an additional $1 charge for payment processing.
