K-State Research and Extension
Master Gardener Program

Extension Master Gardener (EMG) is an educational volunteer program sponsored by Extension. EMGs come from all walks of life but their common bond is a love of gardening and sharing information throughout the community. EMGs receive a basic training in the disciplines of horticulture. They then volunteer in projects to help Extension promote its educational mission.
   

Educational Projects include:
  • Gardening Hotline
  • Demonstration Gardens
  • Speakers’ Bureau
  • Youth Education
  • Garden Tour
  • And more…

Mission Statement
The Johnson County Extension Master Gardener volunteers preserve and beautify the environment and improve quality of life in the community by promoting sound horticulture practices with honesty, patience, and respect for the public and each other.
