Master Gardeners love gardening and love to share information about gardening. El Paso Master Gardeners share information through multiple activities including a Speakers Bureau.

Our Speakers Bureau features an ever expanding array of gardening topics developed by experienced Master Gardeners using research-based information and resources from the Texas AgriLife Extension Service.

Garden clubs, schools, civic groups, service groups and others may call the El Paso Master Gardeners Garden Hotline at 915-566-1276 to request a speaker and program. If a topic other than one on the list below is wanted, Speakers Bureau members will make every effort to accommodate the request.
