MasterGardener
Mission & Board

MasterGardener magazine and MasterGardenerOnline.com are produced in cooperation with the Washington State University Master Gardener Program. Our mission is to provide science-based information on all aspects of home, community, and environmental landscape planning, with an emphasis on understanding the best sustainable horticultural practices.

MasterGardener is published by GFG Publishing, a division of the Washington State Fruit Commission. The commission is a public, nonprofit state agency. It also publishes Good Fruit Grower magazine for commercial tree fruit and grape growers.
