Who are Master Gardeners?

The Master Gardener Program is a nation-wide education and service program. Master Gardeners are trained volunteers who work in partnership with their county Cooperative Extension office to extend information throughout the county. Master Gardener Volunteers receive instruction and are kept up-to-date through training and workshops. In return, they share their knowledge through community service. They are neighbors teaching neighbors about horticulture and environmentally sound gardening practices and provide the public with educational programs and activities.
