Baltimore City Master Gardeners of University of Maryland Extension University of Maryland Extension Master Gardener Volunteers of Baltimore City

The Master Gardener program is designed to train volunteer horticultural educators for University of Maryland Extension- the principal outreach education unit of the University of Maryland. Participants receive training from University of Maryland professionals and then agree to work in their communities to teach people how to cultivate garden spaces and manage landscapes sustainably using researc

h-based information. This environmental horticulture approach reduces fertilizer and pesticide use resulting in improved soil and water quality. Master Gardeners are out and about in your community offering:

• Environmental gardening demonstrations and classes

• Plant clinics where plant and pest problems are diagnosed and residents learn least-toxic solutions

• Individual phone and site consultations

• Composting classes and demonstration sites

• Speakers' bureaus that make public presentations

• Youth gardening

• Community gardening and beautification

• Information booths at fairs and festivals

• Advanced training/continuing education

Small changes can mean less waste, fewer emissions and even a little extra money in your pocket! 🌎💚
