JCMGA Membership Directory Update

By Beet 2025 04 April

The 2025 Jackson County Master Gardeners Association Directory has been submitted for publication. The directories will be mailed through a bulk mailing process to all renewing members who wanted their home address listed in the Directory.  When your Directory arrives via USPS, be sure to use scissors or a mail opener to ensure the cover page does not tear.

Once we have the Directories in the mail, those of you who chose to not have your home address listed may pick up your copy at the Southern Oregon Research and Extension Center (569 Hanley Road, Central Point.) The exact timeline is still to be defined but should be within one month. You will be notified via email when it is time to pick up your copy and given details of where you will find them.

Should there be a correction needed, please contact the Membership Secretary at jcmgmembership@gmail.com. We will publish a Mail Chimp with any changes in a few months.

Congratulations to Linda Jo Millus, winner of this year’s photo contest! Her photo, featuring a colorful burst of Echinacea, will be on the front cover of the 2025 JCMGA Membership Directory.

We would like to thank everyone for filling out the renewal form this year! Your identified areas of interest are being shared with the leaders for our many projects. It is very impressive to see how you want to support our organization.

JCMGA Membership Renewal for 2025

By Beet 2025 01 January

It’s that time of year when we open our Membership Renewal process.  We are asking each renewing member to complete the 2025 Membership form.  This can be done online or via paper form.

This form serves two vital purposes.  First, it assures the Membership Secretary has your most current information regarding your address, phone number, email and year you completed your education.  The second purpose is for you to identify where you want to share your knowledge, skills and abilities in 2025.  There are so many opportunities for you to assist the organization with projects and/or committees.  A project leader will know to contact you when your area of interest is meeting or working on a project.

We have added a box that allows you to limit how much of your contact information is listed in the directory, but we do need some contact information – preferably emails. If you choose not to have your street address listed you will have to pick up your directory at the Extension office because it will not be mailed out.

The yearly renewal fee is still $25.00 and a real bargain.  We ask that all renewal forms be returned by January 31st to be included in the directory which will come out in the Spring of 2025.  Thank you for supporting the process and we look forward to seeing you renew your membership.
