The Elmore County extension office is seeking participants in this year's Master Gardener program.

Anyone interested in attending the ten-week program, or who have questions about it, should call the Extension office at 587-2136 ext.509 or send an email to elmore@uidaho.edu.

The class is limited to 25 students and will cost $80, which covers all materials. The program includes a buddy-system where a couple can enroll, sharing the cost and materials.
