Who are the Nueces Master Gardeners?

We are a non-profit volunteer program of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service designed to support the mission of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service by providing horticultural education and training to residents of Nueces County. The Extension Service trains volunteers to educate the community through demonstration gardens and workshops relevant to our unique South Texas environment.

Our mission focuses on educational outreach to the community, sharing research-based, environmentally conservative methods of garden and landscape management, water protection, plant selection and other horticulture issues.

The Nueces Master Gardener program is guided by Nueces County Horticulture Extension Agent Kevin Gibbs and our President Mary Helen Johnston.

The Nueces Master Gardeners invite you to our monthly meetings, held the fourth Tuesday of every month, as hybrid meetings: In-person at Garden Senior Center, 5325 Greely, Corpus Christi, TX and via Zoom. The general meeting is at 6:00pm and the public is welcome to attend.
