Is anyone out there a Master Gardener through their Department of Ag?
I am planning to take the class and become one and was wondering if
anyone has done this. Just looking for any insight. Thanks

Yes! And yes, I still feel it was worth taking the class. Unlike books
and on line information which is helpful. You will find out what the
local resources are, what works and what does not work in your local
community. If you stay with the MG association you will keep learning
new things.

The negatives or positives (depending on your thinking) is the
volunteering time to your community and ... your wallet size.

In my opinion, Each week there should be a different instructor covering
the different topics. The views on gardening are diverse and
interesting. Not every topic or teacher appeals to the same person.
However, I know some communities are just to small for this too occur.

If you take the class...
ASK QUESTIONS!!! PICK THIER BRAINS!!! GET YOUR MONEYS WORTH!!!
But, be not too disruptive

Enjoy Life... Dan
