Asotin County Master Gardener Program
Our programs provide information to the community and include the following:
Plant Clinics
Beginning in May through September – Plant Clinics are held on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays from 10 am-1 pm in the basement of the Asotin County Courthouse. This is a great opportunity to bring us your garden questions and if possible, a sample or photos of your issue.
Virtually: You may also email us with your garden question and photo(s) at: Mgardener@asotincountywa.gov
Fact Sheets and Articles
In between clinics our Master Gardener Office has a wide variety of publications, and fact sheets available for free to the public.
Community Horticulture Classes
The Master Gardeners host workshops & horticulture events throughout the season such as Information Clinics to Garden Chats there is something for everyone! Check our calendar for upcoming events.
Community Presentations
The Asotin County Master Gardeners are available to give presentations on various topics.
Asotin County Fair
The Asotin County Fair is held the last full weekend in April. Master Gardeners are available to answer gardening questions while you enjoy the fair. Our booth is located at the Street Fair in downtown Asotin. You can also see us in the parade!
Youth Outreach
Throughout the school year, Master Gardeners teach 4th grade youth at local schools how to grow their own food and about worm composting. We also teach kids at the Extension Youth Activity Camp held in July, all about gardening, weather, birds, bugs and more!
Demo Garden
The Asotin County Master Gardeners maintain a Demonstration Garden at the Clarkston Community Garden. Our goal is to grow, test, educate ourselves and the public on best planting practices, varieties, and successful gardening methods in an increasingly arid climate. We are also a resource to the Community Garden organization, who rent us space in the form of raised beds, hoops, and trellis system.
