Collapse ▲Extension Master Gardener℠ Volunteers
Extension Master Gardener℠ volunteers in Mecklenburg County are trained to guide homeowners in making environmentally sound decisions in their landscapes. This guidance is based on reliable, research-based information from educational institutions, like North Carolina State University.
Our volunteer team:
- Teaches gardening and environmental education classes at libraries, schools, and other community locations
- Diagnoses insect/disease/pest problems through our Horticulture Help Desk
- Consults with organizations and groups interested in starting a community garden
- Supports Mecklenburg County Park & Recreation’s community gardens by teaching classes, troubleshooting problems, and demonstrating good gardening techniques
- Participates in community events, like hosting information tables at area farmers markets
- Maintains two demonstration gardens that provide hands-on experience to participants in the EMG program and offer the public information about growing conditions of various plants in the Piedmont
With COVID-19, our in-person activities have been significantly affected. There are several ways to keep updated on the programs we’re offering.
