The NGC Gardening Study Courses are
designed to provide information on topics of
interest to those especially interested in
gardening, horticulture and related topics. The
program consists of a series of four courses, held
about six months apart, scheduled usually for two
days of instruction, followed by a general
examination on the morning of the third day.
Topics include basic botany, soils, growing
annuals, perennials, trees and shrubs, fruits and
vegetables, lawns, pests and diseases of plants,
plant classification, pruning and selected topics
of local interest.
Although the courses are intended primarily for
garden club members, they are open to the general
public, requiring only the payment of a nominal
fee. Garden club members completing the series of
four courses are awarded the designation of
Gardening Consultant. Attendees from the general
public may attain Consultant status by joining a
garden club during the course series or shortly
after completion.
