Horticulture
Horticulture touches our lives every day, from the foods we eat from our gardens (or our local farmer’s garden) to the flowers and plants that enhance our well-being.
The UMaine Extension Cumberland County Horticulture staff is here to assist you with research-based answers to your horticultural-related concerns and questions. From interpreting soil test results to identifying plants, insects, and diseases, we can help.
