BROOKINGS, S.D. (AP) — Master Gardener training classes start May 4 and this year will include mostly online training for South Dakotans who want to learn how to promote and teach gardening.

SDSU Extension Horticulture Specialist David Graper says the training concludes with four days of required, hands-on learning that teach planting, pruning, plant propagation, and plant and pest identification. Those sessions will be held in Watertown, Mitchell and Hot Springs/Custer beginning in June.

As a Master Gardener, people who go through the training have opportunities to write articles, give talks, work at fair booths, help in community and school gardens, teach and answer garden questions.
