The Coconino Master Gardener Association began in 2009 to create a corps of well-informed volunteers, and to deliver quality horticultural education programs adapted to our regional high elevation environment. The association provides support for Master Gardener graduates and volunteers as well as continuing education and opportunities to participate in community programs that increase the visibility and participation in the Master Gardener Program.

2nd Annual CMGA Project Grants 2012

Our annual grants for master garden projects were given out at our June meeting. Three grants for $250 each were given to:

Emeritus Assisted Living
Master gardeners have been creating their garden space for 10 years. The funds will be used for plants and materials to be used for their resident program. Master gardeners on the project are Jacki Hainsworth, Mary Lou Parliman, Carol Daily, and Marie Pickle.. Tim Hainsworth has assisted with many of the hardscape projects.

Riordan Mansion
Master gardeners are active in restoring the gardens at the mansion. Charlotte Dodgon and Dave Brimhall are heading up this project and funds will be used for plants and materials for their Vegetable and Butterfly gardens.

Cromer School
This is a joint project with Cromer School and the Summit Fire Department for materials for a solar project for the school garden.

In addition $50 gift certificates were given to the Arboretum at Flagstaff's children's garden and the Michael Moore Native Medicinal Garden at Olivia White Hospice Home.

The Riordan Mansion project, the Arboretum at Flagstaff, and the MM Native Medicinal Garden were not fully funded. If you want to contribute time or money to any of the projects I am including contacts.

Two other proposals were not funded and their contacts are also included.
