ABOUT DMGA

The DeKalb Master Gardener Association is just that — an  association of about 40 Master Gardeners and friends in DeKalb County, Georgia.  The organization was formed to foster more extensive educational, community service, and social events for interested Master Gardeners. 

DMGA is classified as a "Master Gardener volunteer organization outside the UGA university structure" and receives no support or public funds through the Cooperative Extension Service.  For information about the DeKalb County Cooperative Extension Service, please visit the following website:  www.ugaextension.com/dekalb/

DMGA Meeting - January 23, 2012

The Dekalb Master Gardener Association is pleased to have Linda Copeland speak about "Legends in the Garden, Who in the World is Nellie Stevens?" at our January 23rd meeting.  She will give us the author's perspective about some of the stories in her book, about how she came to write the book, and what went on along the way! 

Having grown up in Jacksonville, Florida, Linda came to Georgia by way of Norton, Massachusetts.  She has studied horticulture at the University of Georgia and is active with numerous gardening organizations including the Georgia Perennial Plant Association.  She coordinates garden tours in the United States and abroad for Garden Vistas.  

DMGA meetings begin at 6:00 p.m. at the Northlake -  Barbara Loar Branch of the DeKalb County Public Library at 3772 LaVista Road, Tucker, GA  30084.  Click here for a map of the library's location.  There is no charge or pre-registration for these educational programs.  Come join us!  Bring a friend.
