Extension Staff

The Fort Bend County Master Gardeners work very closely with the staff of the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service office here in the county. As Master Gardeners, we rely on these individuals to help us find the best answers to a very wide range of horticultural questions and continually help us hone our gardening skills and techniques.
