The Cypress Basin Master Gardeners Association
Our Master Gardener program is an educational and volunteer program offered by the A&M AgriLife Extension of the Texas A&M University System. It is open to people of all ages, regardless of socio-economic level, race, color, sex, religion, ability or national origin. The program is designed to increase the availability of horticultural information and extend horticultural projects throughout the community. These goals are implemented through the training and activities of local volunteer Master Gardeners. The Cypress Basin Master Gardener program provides invaluable training and educational opportunities. Professional and amateur horticulturists, as well as individuals simply seeking up-to date horticultural information, can advance their gardening expertise, and gain self-satisfaction through volunteer efforts. The volunteer aspect of the Master Gardener program allows individuals to dedicate their time and talents to enhancing the quality of life for citizens in their community using the science and art of horticulture. One component of the Cypress Basin Master Gardener program is providing free gardening advice to county residents. We would be glad to help you with any of your gardening quandaries.
