Working With Youth
The Master Gardener Youth Enrichment Program (YEP) offers gardeners a chance to share their time and gardening talents with second graders throughout the school year and present an interactive, introductory program on botany. The interactive presentations include posters, pictures, a seed-to-plant puppet named Herbie, and planting five seeds in a root viewer. The root viewer is left in the classroom for students to watch and study.
The program began in 1994 with the first presentations in the Sequim School District. In 1995 the program was expanded to include Port Angeles and Joyce schools.
In 2007, YEP visited all 33 second grade classrooms in Clallam County, reaching over 709 students.
Gardening Kids 
In 2008, the Master Gardeners will be working with kids ages 10-12 years in an effort to cultivate environmental awareness, stimulate interest in vegetable gardening and to support youth in building confidence and problem solving skills. Projects will include starting seeds for a vegetable garden, learning to read information from a weather station, smelling and tasting fresh herbs from an herb garden and studying honey bees!
