 The
Master Gardeners of Hardeman County Tennessee welcome you to our
new website.
Our members are avid gardeners who've taken an
active interest in growing a more beautiful community. While
we take pride in our own lawns, shrubs, trees, flowers and
vegetable gardens, we're also committed to sharing our knowledge
with others in the community. After completing special training in
horticulture from the University of Tennessee Cooperative
Extension Office, our members contribute their time to benefit the
community. We plant and maintain community garden beds,
provide speakers for various community functions and conduct
how-to workshops.
