The St. Louis Master Gardener Speakers Bureau is a public service program dedicated to providing quality horticultural information. Programs are presented by knowledgeable Master Gardeners who have completed a presentation skills course.

St. Louis Master Gardeners receive extensive horticultural training provided by University Extension and the Missouri Botanical Garden. Speakers have selected and prepared programs that reflect both their expertise and interests.

Master Gardeners will speak to groups located in the Greater St. Louis area. Garden clubs, schools, businesses, churches, neighborhood and civic organizations are invited to take advantage of the Master Gardener Speakers.

Presentations generally last about 1 hour and have a $50 fee. These fees help to offset costs of program material.
