Educational Programs - Horticulture


Horticulture touches our lives everyday – from the foods we eat from our gardens (or our local farmer’s garden) to the flowers and plants that enhance our well being. The Horticulture staff is here to assist you with researched-based answers to your horticultural related concerns and questions. From interpreting soil test results to identifying plants, insects and diseases, we can help.

Sign up to receive e-mail notices from UMaine Extension about horticultural related educational offerings, information on the Master Gardener Volunteer Training, to receive the Maine Home Garden News, learn more about our Maine Harvest for Hunger Program or answers to specific horticultural questions.
