Certified Master Gardeners may join the Travis County Master Gardeners Association. Annual dues are $25. Click here for dues information.
We are members of the local community who are willing to learn and help others and are able to communicate with diverse groups of people. What really sets Master Gardeners apart from other home gardeners is their special training in horticulture, which includes continuing education as well as the initial 50 hours of training. Our Mission is to be an educational, non-profit, service corporation which renders non-biased horticultural information to the community. Our objectives are accomplished through the volunteer efforts of Association Members. More than a garden club, we are a service organization of trained volunteers.
