OSKALOOSA — Do you have horticulture questions?  The Mahaska County Master Gardeners would like to answer them.  They will hold “Ask a Master Gardener” sessions on Tuesday mornings from 9 am to Noon, Memorial Day to Labor Day.

Mahaska County Master Gardeners are celebrating their twentieth year.  The local program organized after the county held their first training.  The educational volunteer program, sponsored by Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, provides current, research based, home horticulture information and education to the citizens of Iowa through programs and projects.  Master Gardeners receive horticulture training, and volunteer to promote a mission of education and service.  The program is open to anyone 18 or older with an interest in gardening and a willingness to use their knowledge, experience and enthusiasm to make a positive impact on their local community.
