Ask a Master Gardener
An important goal of the Master Gardener program is to answer the public’s questions about gardening using University research-based information.
Find answers to your questions several ways – whatever suits you!
By email: Use the national eXtension Ask an Expert tool below. Submit your question anytime – images too! – and a University of Minnesota Master Gardener will answer it via email within 48 hours.
Online: Extension’s Garden website is filled with useful information, including diagnostic tools, Extension publications, Yard & Garden News, and more.
In person: Find out where Master Gardeners are teaching, speaking, or staffing clinics: classes and events
By phone: Many Minnesota counties have garden hotlines managed by local Master Gardeners. Find yours. If your county doesn’t have a hotline, you may also call the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum Yard & Garden Line at (952) 443-1426 and leave a message. A Master Gardener will return your call.
