MG SPROUTS is a Master Gardener Extension Volunteer-led, statewide horticulture program created by UGA Extension’s Georgia Master Gardener Program State Office for kids ages 6-8. Popular children’s literature provides a base for each of the sessions. Groups read a garden-related story aloud and explore the world of plants through hands-on horticulture, writing, games, and other fun activities.

The program consists of several one hour sessions at the Henry County libraries.
