Master Gardener™ Volunteers are a highly trained corp of people who provide research-based, sustainable gardening information to backyard gardeners and professionals in their communities through education and outreach programs.
We're here to share reliable, unbiased gardening information and advice to help you make informed decisions. Gardening techniques are based on Oregon State University research.
The Curry County Extension Office provides training, events and opportunities for the general public in home horticulture and gardening. The Master Gardener™ Program gives people a chance not only to learn, but to share what they have learned with their community.
Volunteers are people interested in learning more about the art and science of growing and caring for plants for the garden, the landscape and the home. In exchange for classroom instruction, they extend garden information to their communities. The commitment is to act as a volunteer staff person for the OSU Extension Service.
What a volunteer does will vary according to the needs of the Extension Service and the desires, skills, and availability of the individual. Some answer telephone requests for gardening information. Others staff plant clinics, plant sales or a booth at the county fair. Master Gardener Volunteers might also speak to local groups, serve on advisory committees, as officers for the local Curry County MG Association, or assist with statewide activities such as the Joy of Gardener Conference that is held annually at OSU.
