Speakers Bureau
The speakers bureau represents one of the most important parts of the Master Gardener program – EDUCATION. Every Master Gardener represents not only the county extension office, but also the University of Georgia Agricultural Department from which we receive our certification. In that light, we strive to serve the public in speaking and teaching on a multitude of topics relating to horticulture. It includes many stated topics but we are always willing, at the suggestion of the public, to provide them with research and information on extended subject matter. Garden clubs, civic associations, homeowners associations, nature advocates and on and on, are always welcome to enlist our services with a phone call to the county extension office. We delight in educating people on making the world a better place with a healthy respect for nature and all its bounty.
For questions or to request a speaker, contact Louise Estabrook, Cooperative Extension Agent at 404-613-7670 or email her at laesta@uga.edu
