Request a Master Gardener Volunteer to be a mentor 

University of Maine Cooperative Extension is starting a program that matches Maine gardeners of all experience levels — from novice to seasoned pro — with a garden mentor for the growing season. 

The Garden Mentorship Program will match UMaine Extension Master Gardener Volunteers with gardeners to provide virtual technical assistance and coaching. Garden mentor requests are first come, first served, and will prioritize beginning gardeners. Maine residents are invited to complete a Garden Mentor Request Form to be considered for the program.
