The Jackson County Master Gardeners Association is a part of the Oregon Master Gardeners Association. 

Our mission is: Cultivating resilient and healthy communities through sustainable horticulture education and gardening projects that are rooted in science and that are supported by Oregon State University Extension volunteers. 

We have been able to accomplish this mission with our working groups, main events, community education classes, OSU Master Gardener Class Practicum – to name a few. 

I want to thank all who have been involved in helping JCMGA stay active in Jackson County! 

You have been amazing in helping us get the word out about responsible, productive gardening and to encourage others in our community to get involved. 

We are a volunteer organization, and we need many volunteers to help us maintain and grow our organization. 

We are looking for VOLUNTEERS! 

There are Demonstration Gardens to work – in alongside of our experiences GEMS.  Contact Janine Salvatti – our Gardens Working Group Chair. 

We are also in need of BOARD Members.
