The GROBigRed team is kicking off 2021 with some exciting new virtual learning options for gardeners across Nebraska.  We’ll be starting with a double header on January 30 with Seed Starting (instructor: John Porter) and Indoor Plant Lights (instructor: Scott Evans).  

 

The program is free.  Sessions will be recorded and shared with those who are registered (even if they can’t attend live).

We hate to toot our own horn... So we're going to let this Travel Blog do it for us! 

 

If you have a strong interest in gardening and enjoy helping others, you are invited to become a University of Nebraska Extension Master Gardener volunteer. 

This program will increase your knowledge and understanding of such horticultural topics: best cultural practices for growing flowers, vegetables, turf, plant disease and insect pest identification, control, and much more. Instructors are Extension specialists, educators, associates, and horticulture professionals. 

Is there a lawn and gardening topic you would like to learn more about? Interested in the Master Gardeners program?
