Garden Notes, the Colorado Master Gardener Course is available for download. We have used several of these pages in our free nature studies. Now you can download the entire course (all 940 pages) free!
This material is used in the Colorado Master Gardener certification program. As such it is pretty robust:
The Colorado Master Gardener program is a unique intersection between University Horticulture expertise and community volunteers interested in educating locally.
But you don’t have to attend the classes or pass the exams to use the information! Topics include:
- Plant health.
- Botany.
- Tree identification.
- Soil and fertilizer.
- Entomology.
- Irrigation.
- Weed management.
- Lawn care.
- Native plants.
- Trees.
- Vegetables.
- Pruning.

- Fruits.
Filled with diagrams, charts, tables, scientific names, identification helps, and so much more! This is truly a treasure for the DIY homeschool handy-mom. And it goes perfectly with our free nature studies. Enjoy!
