Junior Master Gardener Program

Planting Roots in your Community

The 4-H JMG program takes science/horticulture into the classrooms with hands on activities. It is our mission to enhance educational experience through hands on learning activities and provide curricular materials that enable us to help youth learn and retain science with concrete experience. Youth perform community service activities and gain skills in problem solving, communication and goal setting.

At present we are in 8 schools and 17 classrooms. The schools are located throughout the county and reach approximately 350 youth. At present we have two on the South side, two in the North side, One west of downtown, and one on the Westside.

Teachers wanting to start a 4-H Junior Master Gardener Program should contact the Duval County 4-H Office at 387-8858.
