The Wisconsin Master Gardener Program will be celebrating Master Gardener Volunteer Week April 5-9, 2021. Master Gardener Volunteers are an important part of University of Wisconsin-Madison Extension Forest County. Volunteers make a positive difference in Forest County lives and communities by maintaining our community gardens, developing school gardens, and identifying and inventorying the native tree species on the Courthouse Square. Through hours of community service by answering diagnostic questions, educating the public on horticultural topics, growing, and donating food to local pantries, beautifying community spaces, conducting workshops, and more, these volunteers work tirelessly to make Wisconsin an incredible place to live.
Wednesday, April 7 is “Thank a Master Gardener Volunteer Day.” Extension wants to recognize all of our Master Gardener Volunteers for their dedication and contributions to Wisconsin. Join us by making a phone call, writing a note, or just saying “Thank you!” to a Master Gardener Volunteer on April 7th!
To thank your local Master Gardener Volunteers, find us on Facebook or call the Extension Forest County office at 715-478-7797. If inclined, send a thank you card to Forest county Extension, 200 E. Madison Street, Crandon, WI and we’ll make sure our Master Gardener volunteers know about it!
