The DCMGA is Here to Help with Gardening Information

  • Contact our Help Desk with your gardening questions.

There are two ways to ask your gardening questions.

(1) Call 940-349-2892 any time. If there is no answer, leave a detailed message. We will research your question and call you back. Our help desk is located at 306 N. Loop 288 in Denton, TX, and is staffed by Master Gardener volunteers. When volunteers are available, you may bring in a sample of diseased plants or plants you want us to identify.

(2) Email us at master.gardener@dentoncounty.com. We will research your question and usually can provide an answer within a day or two.

The Master Gardener program is an education and volunteer initiative affiliated with the Texas Master Gardener Association and Texas AgriLife Extension within Texas A&M University. The mission of the Denton County Master Gardener Association is to educate Denton County residents about safe, effective and sustainable horticultural practices that promote development of healthy gardens, landscapes and communities. Through the volunteer efforts of the group, Denton County Master Gardeners contributed more than 13,000 hours in 2011 to help schools, churches, businesses and citizens with various gardening projects.Master Gardeners also use their knowledge to answer gardening questions at the local extension office, sponsor educational programs, assist with youth gardening programs, and participate in city beautification projects.
