Welcome to the Coconino County Master Gardeners Association

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.

Volunteers Needed

 Olivia White Hospice Garden is one of our many master gardener projects. They are looking for some volunteers for their Annual Walk/Run this year which happens on June 17. Contact them if you are interested. This does not qualify for master gardener hours but is a fun event for an organization supported by our volunteers
