San Diego County Master Gardener Association

Master Gardeners are volunteers trained and supervised by the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE).

One of the least-known treasure troves of information in San Diego County is that over three hundred Master Gardeners provide home gardening and pest control information throughout the county, FREE to the public.

The mission of the UCCE is to conduct research on new pests and issues affecting the county, and to provide research based information to the public. The county of San Diego provides support for the local UCCE office which is known as the Farm and Home Advisor Department.
