The Master Gardener program began in the 1970's in response to the many gardening questions that resulted from the rapidly increasing level of interest in home gardening. The idea was to train knowledgeable gardener volunteers to help University Extension staff deliver home gardening information to the public.

Our local Master Gardeners are able to build on their interests and acquire greater expertise through the resources available through the Extension Service and the University of Missouri.

University of Missouri Extension provides equal opportunity to all participants in extension programs and activities, and for all employees and applicants for employment on the basis of their demonstrated ability and competence without discrimination on the basis of their race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability or status as a protected veteran.

Hickory County Master Gardeners recommend contacting your local Extension Service for more complete plant and growing information and how to become a Master Gardener.

Meetings are reserved for Master Gardener members, but community programs hosted by the Master Gardeners are public events and will be announced in the local newspaper.

Quiche


 

QUICHE

(A Light but Hearty Anytime Meal)

What You Need
Six Eggs
Evaporated Milk
3-4 Cups of Grated Cheddar Cheese
Diced Ham
Fresh Garden Veggies such as Spinach, Onions, Tomatoes or Broccoli (one of your choice)
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 Deep Dish Frozen Pie Shell

How You Do It
Mix eggs, salt, pepper and 1/4 can milk together. In pie shell, spread layer of meat, then veggie, then cheese.  Repeat till shell is almost filled to the top but with enough room to add egg mixture.  Pour egg mixture over ingredients in the pie shell.  When you are about 1/2 through the mixture, pour more evaporated milk in if you think you are going to need it to fill pie shell.  Line a cookie sheet with foil and bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.  Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for 45 minutes.  Leftover quiche may be refrigerated and reheated the following day.
