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.

Visit to Jim Mast's Orchard and Greenhouse


Jim's Orchard with a Jujube tree
What:            Field Trip to Jim Mast's Orchard and Greenhouse
When:           Saturday,  April 16, 10am -12pm
Where:          128 Rincon Drive, Clarkdale, AZ
                       Map link: https://www.google.com/maps/place/128+Rincon+Dr,+Clarkdale,+AZ+86324/@34.7743458,-112.0498929,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x872d11d87f695263:0x64bc4bae373d1fbd

Why:              This will be a follow-up to Jim's talk at the April 14 CMGA Meeting. There will be a potluck lunch to follow. Bring something you would eat for lunch to share with others (fruit or green salad, cheese, cold cuts, desserts) and Sheryl and Jim will provide the drinks. I will bring pulled pork sandwiches. He also asks that you BYOC (bring your own chair for lunch).

The photo above is one that I took while I visited Jim's orchard in the early spring. The orchard is across the street from his home and sits right on the Verde River. Don't miss this chance to see a greenhouse in operation first hand, and a beautiful fruit and tree orchard. It will be early in the garden season but remember we will be in the Verde Valley. 
 
Any questions should be directed to Jim at our next meeting on April 14 when he will talk about greenhouse gardening or you can reach him online at jamesmast@q.com.
