Become a Master Gardener

Master Gardeners are more than just gardening enthusiasts. They are trained horticultural experts who serve their communities through service projects and delivery of educational programs.

If you enjoy gardening and like 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. Master Gardeners share unbiased, reliable, research-based information with home landscapers and gardeners. They also encourage young people to enjoy the pleasures of flower and vegetable growing.
