Welcome to the Coconino County Master Gardeners Association
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.
Monthly meetings are held on the 2nd Thursday from 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm at the Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church at 1601 N. San Francisco St. in Flagstaff, Arizona.
