The Texas Master Gardener Program is an educational volunteer organization which is part of Texas A&M University’s AgriLife Extension Service. Master Gardener Programs are designed to increase the availability of horticultural information and extend horticultural projects throughout the community. The programs provide invaluable training and educational opportunities. Persons who become Master Gardeners contribute time as volunteers, working through their AgriLife Extension office to provide horticultural-related information in various ways to their communities.
The McLennan County Master Gardener program is one of 70 Master Gardener associations in Texas.
