2019 marks the 40-year anniversary of the Extension Master Gardener program in North Carolina.

Because of Master Gardener volunteers, NC State Extension has been able to share research-based, up-to-date information and promote sustainable gardening practices to home gardeners across the state for 40 years!

One important source of funding that helps strengthen the Extension Master Gardener (EMG) program is the NC Extension Master Gardener Endowment. As the Endowment grows, the annual interest income it generates increases, enhancing our ability to support Master Gardener volunteer work statewide

Your generous support of the NC EMG program is greatly appreciated! Between January and November 2019, gifts to the endowment have totaled $9,655.

But we still have a ways to go. Our goal is to raise $40,000 to commemorate our 40th anniversary.
