Our Plant Clinic is indeed the flagship entry of the Master Gardener fleet.  At the Plant Clinic, gardening enquires are made by the public either by telephone or personal visits.  We have an extensive collection of information in our library available for a modest fee and many times at no cost.  We also are linked to the internet directly with O S U extension service in Corvallis, Oregon.  The clinic is coordinated and directed by Master Gardener John Schaeffer.  John is very knowledgeable in many area of home gardening.

The Plant Clinic is also the prime source for continuing education for graduating Master Gardeners.  

All Master Gardeners are required to contribute a total of 70 hours of volunteer time, of which 25 must be in the Plant Clinic.  The remaining 45 hours can be paid back by working in the Soil Lab, Greenhouse and most needed, the Growers Market on Saturdays   Click Here  for a complete explanation of hours and a look at our new volunteer log sheet.   Each new student will work with a senior Master Gardener answering in-coming phone calls and greeting visitors to the clinic.
