Core Course

Join us for the 2025 Core Course 

The 2025 Core Course will begin the second week of January. Join us for weekly Plant Talk Tuesday Zoom Q&A sessions weekly on Tuesday evenings from 6:30-8:30, starting on January 14th and continuing through May 6th. While the Core Course will be self-paced, Zoom sessions are spread out to cover roughly one topic a week for the duration of the course. 

Currently trained Master Gardener Volunteers are welcome to join Zoom sessions and experience the new online content. A link to join the course will be provided in the January Newsletter! Email mgweb@umn.edu for access information if you missed the sign up link.
