well here in mich its run by the state agri.but its more than just classes,you have to put in 100 hours of volunteer work with plantings in your community so get final certs.but this was back almost 20 years so it may be less or more now and each state could be very different.it was about 300.00 back then also but it included a huge text book with a ton of info and lots of dif lists with phone numbers ect.so you had something to look back on later if needed.i did it after having already been working in a large scale production nursery for 15 years and i still learned a ton from the professor who gave the classes.but she had a helper with her and broke us down into 2 classes,experienced and new students and she had alot of time to answer questions from our group each day.i actually met an old guy in the class that owned a greenhouse and learned almost as much from him as i did the teacher lol.and im still friends with that guy so ya never know what you might get out of the course.gl
All I am finding for this is medical clinics. Do you have a better name or link I could check out?
well if you want to learn about our plants specificlly i would def watch both the videos from this guy.super smart dude and goes into detail here.someone else posted these here a while back.i sat through both and saved them.might even be more stuff online from harley smith.enjoy
Thank you! I used to be impressed by that designation, until I learned what they actually *know*. Now I just laugh when it's trotted out like a fine pony.
