GARDEN LEARNING ENVIRONMENT FUNDRAISER

...HELP US GROW

Since 1991, the Master Gardener volunteers of Cornell Cooperative Extension Albany County have designed, planted, maintained, and educated residents through demonstration gardens to showcase plantings appropriate to the Capital District region.

The main learning garden located at the CCE Albany office, 24 Martin Road in Voorheesville, provides visitors with a wealth of information related to sound horticultural practices as well as a variety of native plants and pollinators in an outdoor setting full of learning opportunities.

The Albany County Master Gardener program is raising funds to continue its educational mission for the community by making improvements to the outdoor garden environment at the Voorheesville site.

Funds will help to:

Replace gazebo

Add picnic tables and a small storage shed

Provide shade coverings for children's garden and compost demonstration area

Update gardening equipment and tools

Secure materials to repair fencing

Create new educational signage
