Cornell Cooperative Extension of Allegany County celebrates the “masters”
From Cornell Cooperative Extension,
National Volunteer Week is a time to recognize and honor the incredible contributions of volunteers across the country. Today, we take a moment to celebrate the dedication and service of our Master Gardener volunteers, whose passion for horticulture and community service brings beauty and sustainability to our gardens. Master Gardeners are more than just gardening enthusiast; they are trained experts who share their knowledge and skills to improve our environment and educate others. These volunteers spend countless hours running educational programs, workshops, and offering gardening advice to the public. Their efforts help create vibrant, thriving green spaces that benefit us all.
The impact of Master Gardener volunteers is far-reaching, they support local food systems by growing vegetables for food banks, promote native plants and biodiversity, and contribute to environmental sustainability by encouraging sustainable gardening practices; their work not only enhances the aesthetic appeal of our communities but also fosters a deeper connection with nature.
To our Master Gardener Volunteers (MGV) from Cornell Cooperative Extension Allegany County, we want to thank you for your commitment and tireless efforts. Your work makes a significant difference in the lives of many, and we are grateful for your dedication.
As we celebrate National Volunteer Week, let’s take a moment to acknowledge and appreciate the invaluable contributions of these amazing individuals. Whether you’re attending a gardening workshop, visiting a community garden, or enjoying a beautifully landscaped public space, remember to thank a Master Gardener Volunteer.
