Along with the changes in temperature and color brought with Fall, graduation season is upon us! As our new cohort of interns are joining the ranks of seasoned Master Gardener’s, we would love to hear from our Alums – even if you have not participated in Master Gardener events in a while.

We encourage you to take a break from your Fall cleanup tasks to check in with UConn Extension and let us know how the Master Gardener program shaped or augmented your horticultural knowledge. Who where your favorite guest lecturers? What community service activities did you get to participate in? Did anything on the final practical leave you stumped and reaching for your MG handbook after the exam? Community service and community connection are such an integral part of being a Master Gardener, and we would love to hear what you have been up to since participating in the program. Please reach out on our MG Alumni Form so we can stay connected.

While you are at it, if you would like to reconnect or refresh your skills, make sure to check out all our advanced master gardener classes scheduled this Fall and level up your badge! Recertification is always available for our Master Gardener alums and we have more events to join than ever.
