Did you know there are two Master Gardener units in Fairfax County?

GSEMG and Fairfax County Master Gardeners each have their own unique volunteer requirements and projects. Our Master Gardeners complete 50 hours of classroom training in the Fall (two classes a week with one in-person at Green Spring Gardens during the day and one online in the evening) and 50 hours of internship the following year. It’s a good option for those who have the time. And we are the only Master Gardener unit based at a public garden in Virginia. Consider the Green Spring difference!
