Projects for Volunteer Hours 

Below is the list of Guadalupe County Master Gardener Volunteer Outreach Service Opportunities.   Some may have no point of contact listed (you are encouraged and welcome to lead the project); others have a point of contact listed so that you can ask questions of them or request to volunteer. Remember, all of these projects need your help by volunteering to support our community.  Click on the links below to go to the specific project page for all the details.

We want your project pictures so we can post them here for all to see and enjoy! A google drive share has been setup where you can upload your pictures. Please contact David Koepp or Frank Rippel for the details.
