Did anyone respond?

No, but I also posted in the NE Gardening forum and got over 100 responses! It seems the MA MG program is run through the Massachusetts Horticultural Society, which is in Wellesley. It used to be run through the land grant college extension service (like in other states) and I don't know why/how it was changed. Anyway, as far as I can tell, the classes are only taught through MassHort and only at the Elm Bank Horticulture Center in Wellesley, but I could be wrong.

Anyhoo, while the MG program (tm) may not be as structured statewide as it is in MI, there is no shortage of gardeners in MA and I think I could find gardening pals there.
