Covid Impact on the Fresno Master Gardener program

Covid 19 has impacted everyone! Communities are struggling to adjust and survive this pandemic. The Garden of the Sun Demonstration Garden is closed and we hope to open in the future. New this year was our online plant sale at Fresno demonstration garden. The online sales with curbside pickup allow us to sale a small amount of plants. We donated to local non profits over 1,000 plants. The Fresno Master Gardener program lost the revenue of our Annual Spring Garden Tour and plant sale due to the pandemic. This critical income directly supports our programs and outreach in the communities. We have seen an increase in home gardening by the number of questions that come into our helpline. The Master Gardener Helpline is working remotely. People are discovering the wellness benefits both mental and physical of working in the garden.
