Boone County Master Gardeners

If you enjoy gardening and want to learn to share your gardening knowledge, the Master Gardener program may be for you. All you need is an interest in gardening, an open mind, and a willingness to share your knowledge with others. The task of the Master Gardeners is to share unbiased, reliable, research-based information with home landscapers and gardeners. Another vital function is to encourage young people to enjoy the pleasures of flower and vegetable growing.
