COVID-19 Update
In an abundance of caution during the COVID-19 crisis and at the recommendation of various public health agencies we will be adjusting our services accordingly:
- Community talks and workshops scheduled through June 30th have been canceled or postponed.
- Our Master Gardener Helpline desk will only be responding to emails. Please email your inquires to mgventura@ucdavis.edu.
- Plant samples can be brought to the UC Cooperative Extension office for analysis (669 County Square Drive, Suite 100, Ventura, CA 93003). There is a bin with instructions outside the main door.
Thanks for your patience during this time. We will inform you when we resume normal activities.
The Mission of the UC Master Gardener Program is to extend research based knowledge and information on home horticulture, pest management, and sustainable landscape practices to the residents of California and be guided by our core values and strategic initiatives.
