Happy New Year to all!
This is a message to let you know that the UME Master Gardener State Office will be focusing on a few new initiatives in the coming year. We will do this by:
● Creating
a digital format for the
Maryland Master Gardener Handbook.
● Increasing our on-campus connections by tapping into cutting edge research and educational resources.
●
Completing comprehensive UME Master Gardener online policy and procedures handbooks.
With new ideas to explore and directions to pursue, some changes are inevitable.
One change you will notice this year is the temporary break in hosting the UME Master Gardener & Master Naturalist Annual Training Conference.
We are very excited about this new adventure and look forward to sharing with you our progress as the year unfolds.
I look forward to working with you in 2018.
