We Exist to Serve You

The Suffolk Extension Master Gardeners (Suffolk EMGs) are proud residents of the City of Suffolk, VA who volunteer their time and expertise, to provide FREE horticultural resources for the residents of the City of Suffolk.  Resources concerning tree care, native plants, flower gardening, vegetable gardening, pest and disease identification and management are just a few of the topics we can assist you with!  We also maintain gardens all over the City of Suffolk where we conduct educational programs, guided tours, and other events.

Ask a Master Gardener

Getting help is easy!  Suffolk EMGs can be found at our office, on Facebook, by phone, email, and at various Suffolk farmers markets.  Take advantage of our Ask a Master Gardener program, where you can contact us from the comfort of your own home!  To submit a question, email us at SuffolkMG@gmail.com or call us at 757-514-4335.  When emailing, attach pictures of the plant, pest, or problem and provide a detailed description.  This will allow us to serve you.  A Suffolk EMG volunteer will respond in a timely manner.  Beginning in 2024, volunteers will be providing monthly office hours. Stop by our Virginia Cooperative Extension (VCE) classroom and obtain research-based assistance with your gardening questions and concerns.
