COVID-19 Update
In an abundance of caution during the COVID-19 pandemic and at the recommendation of various public health agencies we will be adjusting our services accordingly:
- Our Master Gardener Helpline desk will only be responding to emails. Please email your inquires to mgventura@ucdavis.edu
- Please wear a mask and gloves to any Master Gardener event you attend.
- 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.
