The Junior Master Gardeners are a brand new 4-H club this year and are looking to recruit members who are interested in agriculture, horticulture and gardening.

OSU Extension Service Agent Logan Bennett said the club is open for students ages 9 to 19. Bennett will be hosting an open house on Saturday, January 25th from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. It will be held at the extension office on southeast Douglas Avenue, just east of the courthouse in downtown Roseburg.

The open house is a drop-in event, so parents and students can come at any time. Bennett said there will be an ongoing plant propagation class during the open house. Each student that comes will leave with a plant and a packet of seeds.
