It’s one thing to have educating the gardening public as a cornerstone of our mission. But, to paraphrase a saying popularized by the 1989 movie Field of Dreams, “If you build it, they will NOT come”…unless we get the word out! Our Communications/Marketing team works hard to keep you in the loop regarding MMGA programs that are available to the public, including the following:
Outreach initiatives: Ask-a-Master-Gardener tables (AAMGs), Soil pH Testing events, lectures by Speakers Bureau members, and Helpline services
Educational programs: our annual fall Massachusetts Gardening Symposium, Master Gardener Certification Program, semi-annual Home Gardener Boot Camp Program and seasonally-focused Gardening Know-How Series
