The Master Gardener volunteers (MGV) of Ohio are celebrating Ohio MGV Week with a variety of community activities and planting events. Over 3200 volunteers provided more than 100,000 hours of service to their communities, impacting more than a quarter million Ohioans. Volunteers participate in a variety of activities including conducting educational programs for consumers on best gardening practices; developing demonstration gardens highlighting best management practices; conducting research on plant varieties recommended for Ohio; working with neighbors in community garden settings; teaching people how to plant, maintain and harvest a vegetable garden in the city; and continuing to work with OSU Extension to provide outreach.
