EMGVs - Wednesday Workdays!

Throughout the year, Pitt County Extension Master Gardener volunteers hold workdays in all gardens of the Arboretum. These monthly days where our volunteers gather together are not only ideal for regular maintenance but for fellowship and learning as well. 

2020 was a difficult year for us all, as our Extension Master Gardener volunteers had to leave the gardens they love and tend to so well due to restrictions put in place at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.

It is wonderful to witness our volunteers coming back into the gardens as Spring blooms softly all around us. In these photos, you will see our Extension Master Gardener volunteers enjoying the sunshine and each other's company as they pull weeds, prune necessary trees and shrubs, rake leaves, plant new seeds and so much more! 

We hope that you'll come out to the Arboretum and join us in enjoying all that Spring has to offer us in the gardens!
