Master Gardener Extension volunteers are available upon request for setting up a plant clinic at local retail nurseries, garden centers, farmer's markets, local events, and other locations. Please provide at least 6 weeks advance notice to allow time for scheduling a plant clinic day. Submit your request or general plant questions using any of these methods:

  • Submit information in the Ask a Master Gardener box on this page
  • Email augustaareamastergardeners@gmail.com
  • Submit your request on Augusta Area Master Gardeners Facebook page

Plant clinics offer an excellent opportunity for the general public to ask questions about gardening and home landscaping.
