Horticulture Certificate Programs
The ROCHESTER CIVIC GARDENER’S, PRUNING, PLANT PROPAGATION, PLANT IDENTIFICATION and RESIDENTIAL LANDSCAPE DESIGN CERTIFICATE programs offer high-quality basic training for gardeners of all experience levels, from the novice to the professional. The programs are designed for serious gardeners wishing to expand or refresh their horticultural knowledge. Certification will provide students with a focus of study and documentation of courses taken. All classes take place at Warner Castle unless otherwise stated in the description. For off-site classes, you will receive directions by mail or email before the class. Preregistration is required for most classes. Register early! Most classes have a maximum of 20 students or less. Classes which require materials may not be able to accommodate last-minute registrations. In case of bad weather, RCGC is usually closed when the city schools are closed. Outdoor classes generally take place rain or shine, so dress accordingly. If in doubt call 585/473-5130. Scholarship assistance is available for certificate programs. If you are interested in applying, call Judy Hubbard for more information at 585-473-5130 or email rcgcjh@frontiernet.net. Scholarship funds are available thanks to generous donations from Gerald and Karen Kral and the Rochester Herb Society.
