Thursday Jan, 15 was the first meeting of my Master Gardener class at Boerner Botanical Gardens.
It was designated Week 0 because it was an organizational meeting.
The combined enrollment for Milwaukee/Waukesha is 125, and it looked to me like about half were in the Milwaukee section. The room was full.
Lots of talk about volunteer opportunities at places like the Zoo, State Fair Park, Ten Chimneys, Old World Wisconsin, etc.
There were 300 volunteers in 2008. That number seems low to me considering there have been Master Gardeners in the metro area since 1976.
The topic of the next meeting is botany. I read about gardening all the time, but I have not studied botany since my biology class at MSU over 30 years ago.
