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
Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran Church

Volunteer and Education Hours Reporting

All master gardener trainees and certified master gardeners need to report their hours.

Beginning in 2010, certified master gardeners need to have 6 Education hours and 12 Volunteer hours in order to maintain certification. The online reporting system allows you to report Education or Volunteer hours.
If you have any questions or concerns about the reporting system, please contact Hattie Braun. 

Report your education and volunteer hours here!

Ideas for hours

  • Attend monthly CMGA meetings
  • Attend a garden conference or related lecture
  • Work on an CMGA committee
  • Do a garden talk for a meeting, some other association, or the Home Show if available
  • Work at the home show or other appropriate event (i.e. Earth Day)
  • Work at a MG site (Olivia White Hospice, the Arboretum, Riordan Mansion, or school gardens (many others)). Check out the Assoc. Doc. & Forms under Volunteer Sites for a list of approved sites
  • Work in the Extension office or for the Seed Library
  • Write an article for the newspaper column -Gardening Etcetera
  • Volunteer for a Garden Conference
Be creative! There are many ways to fulfill your hours. Just remember for volunteering it needs to be a non-profit endeavor or an approved for profit site.
