We are a 501(c)3 organization. About us
The Master Gardeners Program educates volunteers in science-based gardening and landscape practices and helps them effectively extend research-based information to the public as Master Gardeners. The Master Gardener's primary role is that of “educator.” There are many different ways our volunteers in Lee County help the Alabama Extension System (ACES) expand outreach to the community. Our "Help Line" is available to answer your garden and landscape questions spring-through-fall. We offer a variety of garden-related programs and workshops for the public, construct and maintain community demonstration gardens and help implement community projects. In addition, every other year we conduct a mid-May garden tour to showcase successful local gardens and offer ideas and inspiration. The tour is also our fundraiser, supporting our projects and programs. |
