Horticulture
Horticulture touches our lives everyday, 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 researched-based answers to your horticultural related concerns and questions. From interpreting soil test results to identifying plants, insects, and diseases, we can help.
