Got gardening questions? We've got answers!
Our gardening staff in the Lane County Office can answer your questions in person, by phone, or email, in educational programs and workshops, or with locally produced materials and garden publications based on research conducted at Oregon State University. During December and January Master Gardeners will be available in the office 1-4 p.m.
Our programs are designed to help gardeners in Lane County on topics of interest to area gardeners--such as composting and pruning. We have answers to gardening questions and developed seasonal to-do lists called Garden Tips. We also have Garden Calendars, a list of activities organized by month. Our website includes links to other garden-related websites.
Master Gardener™ & Compost Specialist Programs
If you enjoy gardening and want to share that enjoyment with others in your community, consider the OSU Extension Master Gardener™ or Compost Specialist training program. After completing the training, you can help Extension faculty educate and advise other home gardeners throughout Lane County.
Workshops and classes
For the past 17 years we've trained thousands of home orchardists and gardeners. Some of our participants have repeated classes to keep their skills sharp; others have taken all of the classes!
Classes are led by trained volunteer Master Gardeners™ who are eager to share their knowledge and experience with you.
