Vancouver Island Master Gardeners 
Joining a new organization can be a bit daunting. Why is that? Well, as you know, organizations are multi-faceted and VIMGA is no different. Also, VIMGA covers much of Vancouver Island which adds another complexity to the organization. Not surprising then, it takes a while to get to know VIMGA.
The 2024 VIMGA interns thought we could smooth your path by providing bite-sized information relevant to the Intern Experience. While you will be supported throughout the internship by various mentors, sometimes it is handy to have information to refer back to. But, don’t read all of these at one go. My gosh… you will be exhausted. Read on a need-to-know basis. For example, read about the Plant ID Project just before you start.
The 2024 interns wish you a fun and enjoyable time being an intern!
