Who We Are
The Marion County Master Gardeners Association is a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping home gardeners in Marion County learn about the science, art and joy of gardening. MCMGA is part of the state-wide Master Gardener program administered by Oregon State University Extension and supports the mission and objectives of the Master Gardener Program.

What We Do
MCMGA provides a variety of education and outreach programs. These programs are delivered by Marion County Master Gardeners – experienced volunteers from your community who are trained and certified in sustainable research-based gardening techniques by OSU professors and other experts. Special programs include:

Workshops & Events
Jr. Master Gardener
Community Garden Consulting
Annual Plant Sale
Demonstration Garden
Community Plant Clinics & Help Desk
Speakers Bureau & KBZY
Master Gardener Training
How We Help
Master Gardeners contribute to the gardening community by providing reliable relevant information for home gardeners. Master Gardeners teach, advise, listen, diagnose, experiment, learn, demonstrate and connect gardeners of all ages with the information they need. We enjoy gardening, learning about gardening and sharing experiences with others. We’ll do our best to answer your question immediately. However, sometimes we need to take more time to research your issue, or to consult with Neil Bell, our Marion County Horticulturist or other OSU experts. We may also recommend another agency or organization for you to contact. Our goal is for you to have the best answer possible.
