WSU Pierce County Master Gardeners

The WSU Master Gardener Program trains volunteers as community educators to empower citizens to encorporate sustainable horticultural practices that help to conserve our natural resources.

WSU Pierce County Master Gardeners serve their communities by addressing conservation needs that fit the missions of Pierce County Government and WSU. Critical issues Master Gardeners currently work toward improving in Pierce County are water quality and food security.
