UC Master Gardener Program

Welcome to the UC Master Gardener community! Since 1980, the UC Master Gardener Program has helped deliver the University of California's pioneering research directly into the hands of those who share a passion for gardening and environmental stewardship. A program under UC Agriculture and Natural Resources (ANR), we pride ourselves on being more than just a gardening program— we are in our communities helping build more sustainable landscapes.

Our mission is simple: "To extend research-based knowledge and information on home horticulture, pest management, and sustainable landscape practices to the residents of California." We stand guided by our core values and strategic initiatives, aiming to inspire, educate, and build communities of eco-conscious gardeners.
