Our 2018 Garden Tour was delightful and another successful LCMGA fundraising event. Many thanks to our talented garden owners, generous sponsors, loyal & new tour goers and to all the volunteers who made the tour possible. Proceeds fund our community efforts. Our next Garden Tour is May 2020!

Our exhibit at the Lee County Fair won another Blue Ribbon. The Cash Prize will help fund our many community efforts! This year in conjunction with Alabama's 200th year of statehood, we focused on canning with a very interesting display of authentic lightning jars, canners and a Jesup wagon.
This effort was led by 2018 MG Intern, Kat and her creative team. Special thanks to Steve Crannell for lending us the wagon.

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 even-numbered 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. Did you know we offer Grants?
Do you love all things related to gardens and gardening?
