Five Critical Issues
![Page 35: Welcome! [] › uploads › 234 › 71650 › MG_Master_PPT... · 2017-05-05 · Welcome! Moving the Michigan Master Gardener Program Forward . Mary Wilson, State Coordinator,](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060413/5f1198e1efa4a9382753735d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Recognition and Relationships
• We (MG volunteers, MMGA) would like to feel like to be a partner again with MSUE. Right now we feel we are putting in the time, but MSUE is getting the recognition.
• MG individuals and MMGA put a lot of their own time and resources into continuing the program.
• Horticulture plays second-fiddle to agriculture in MSUE—both are needed in Michigan.
![Page 36: Welcome! [] › uploads › 234 › 71650 › MG_Master_PPT... · 2017-05-05 · Welcome! Moving the Michigan Master Gardener Program Forward . Mary Wilson, State Coordinator,](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060413/5f1198e1efa4a9382753735d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Communication/Roles
• Communications, beginning at the top, need to be clear, concise, and consistent.
• Email communication is not enough. • More sharing of what everyone is doing around the state
- make us a state-wide group of volunteers, each working in their own area of the state.
• Lack of standardized guidelines. What can people do or not do? Standards are different around the state. Provide more consistency that could then be enforced.
![Page 37: Welcome! [] › uploads › 234 › 71650 › MG_Master_PPT... · 2017-05-05 · Welcome! Moving the Michigan Master Gardener Program Forward . Mary Wilson, State Coordinator,](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060413/5f1198e1efa4a9382753735d/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Equity
• MG should be a statewide program, available to all, no matter where you live
• More opportunities for urban gardening and helping those in need.
• The vast majority of MG volunteers are white, retired, and middle-to-upper-class. This doesn’t reflect the diversity of Michigan residents.
![Page 38: Welcome! [] › uploads › 234 › 71650 › MG_Master_PPT... · 2017-05-05 · Welcome! Moving the Michigan Master Gardener Program Forward . Mary Wilson, State Coordinator,](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060413/5f1198e1efa4a9382753735d/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Program Delivery/Distance Learning
• We’d like more hands-on instruction • We’d like to see more online learning, where we
could learn at our own pace. • Face-to-face develops relationships and social
engagement. • Long-time Master Gardeners should be able to
take a refresher course
![Page 39: Welcome! [] › uploads › 234 › 71650 › MG_Master_PPT... · 2017-05-05 · Welcome! Moving the Michigan Master Gardener Program Forward . Mary Wilson, State Coordinator,](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022060413/5f1198e1efa4a9382753735d/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Funding/Program Sustainability
• It’s important to have regularly scheduled programs to attract new volunteers and keep the program from losing members.
• The MG Program in my county is failing due to no new members, due to no new classes to fill our ranks with new motivated people.
• Local support is missing in some counties. • We need to put more resources into this an
organization.
