Crow Wing County Master Gardeners are great speakers!
Master Gardeners in Crow Wing County offer public presentations on many different horticulture-related topics.
Your group can request a Master Gardener to present at your meeting, program or any event where there is an audience eager to learn about gardening.
The public presentations offered by Crow Wing County Master Gardeners are scheduled through the Program County Coordinator. Normal scheduling requires at least two weeks advanced notice. Every effort will be made to find a speaker for every request received but please keep in mind that Master Gardeners are volunteers. Usually an honorarium is suggested for a public presentation. Please call the Program County Coordinator for additional information regarding honorarium.
If your group in Crow Wing County is interested in requesting a public presentation by a Crow Wing County Master Gardener please contact Jackie Froemming, Program County Coordinator at (218)824-1068 or at froem022@umn.edu.
