JR. MASTER GARDENER

JMG Participants are currently meeting on property with a modified schedule and an increase of sanitation practices in accordance with state guidelines.

The Junior Master Gardener (JMG) program is a youth 4-H gardening program held at Thanksgiving Point. JMG engages students in hands-on group and individual learning experiences that provide a love of gardening, develop an appreciation for the environment, and cultivate the mind. Students will have the opportunity to participate in planting, care, and harvesting of the crops at Farm Country at Thanksgiving Point.

Junior Master Gardener is sponsored by DoTerra.
