Gwen Podeschi is a Christian County Master Gardner and she discussed the upcoming Master Gardening training classes that start in January. Podeschi said the classes can either be taken in person or online and if you’re interested, online registration is now open.

There are a number of different classes that you would take when training to become a Master Gardener including classes on basic soils, botany, and pest and disease control to name a few.

The classes are taught by University of Illinois trained educators with University of Illinois extension and they all teach to their specialty.

Podeschi was a guest on the Newstalk WTIM Morning Show.
