I wish to become a University of Maine Cooperative Extension Master Food Preserver Volunteer. I understand that if I am selected, I must attend at least 7 of the 8 sessions, pay $325* by the deadline provided, and complete a minimum of 20 hours of approved volunteer work within a 12-month period to become certified as a Master Food Preserver Volunteer. In order to maintain my Master Food Preserver Volunteer certification, I understand that I'll need to continue to volunteer 10 hours every year with an approved project and submit an annual enrollment form.
Note: Participants not willing or able to complete 20 hours of volunteer service within a 12-month period following training should not apply for the Master Food Preserver Volunteer Program.
*Limited financial assistance is available.
