Green
Thumb Gardening Classes
 The
Green Thumb project offers horticultural classes to Hampton Roads
citizens who cannot or do not wish to attend Master Gardener
classes. The classes are very affordable and give most
students the information they need to improve their lawns, their
gardens and their lives. The Green Thumb project is a joint
venture of the Chesapeake, Norfolk, Portsmouth and Virginia Beach
offices of the Virginia Cooperative Extension and their Master
Gardeners.
