Congratulations WSU Master Gardeners!

Vision, Mission and Values
The WSU Master Gardener program has recently reviewed and revised its Vision and Mission and developed values that are important to our program.
- Our vision describes where we want to be in 10 years.
- Our mission describes who we are, what we do and the value our work provides to the communities we serve.
- Our values describe attributes, traits and behaviors that are important to the WSU Master Gardener program.
When considering long term projects, short term goals and daily tasks, use our vision, mission and values statements to guide your decision making. Ask yourself, how does this project help achieve our vision; how does the task I am working on right now align with our vision and mission; how do my behaviors and the things that are important to me align with our program’s values? Be certain that everything you do helps to achieve our vision, maintains our mission and aligns with our values to help lead our program into the next decade.
