The mission of the Dakota County Extension Master Gardener program is to educate and assist the public by answering questions and solving problems about horticulture and related environmental topics. There are more than 130 Dakota County residents who are University of Minnesota Extension-trained and volunteer thousands of hours each year.
Food is a big deal for Dakota County Master Gardeners. Our love of gardening inspires us to bring the best out of fresh, seasonal, sustainable ingredients every day. Our Master Gardeners are creative, passionate, and extraordinary – and terrific cooks too!
