You are being sent this email, because at some time during the past year, you attended a Ventura County Master Gardener sponsored event or meeting, and indicated an interest in receiving information about future Master Gardener events.

 

If you wish to expand your knowledge and understanding of horticulture and gardening, and are interested in becoming a Ventura County Master Gardener in 2011, this is to inform you that we are starting the process of accepting applications for the training classes which will take place from January 13th until May 26th 2011.

 

We are holding two Orientation Meetings to explain exactly what the training class is about, and what your commitments will be.  These meetings will be held at the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) conference rooms located at 669 County Square Drive, Ventura.  on Tuesday September 14th from 2:00 to 4:00 pm and Monday September 20th from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.  (Signs to the conference rooms A & B will be posted inside the building)

 

You MUST attend ONE of these meetings, at the end of which application forms will be distributed to everyone wanting to participate.  All applicants will be interviewed because we receive more applications than we can accept, and you will be able to sign up for an interview at this meeting. 

This is the only opportunity where application forms can be obtained.

 

If you are interested in learning more about the program and the training course, please send an email to Leah Haynes at ljhaynes@ucdavis.edu  indicating which of the two meetings you wish to attend.

 

 

 

Happy Gardening!
