How do I request help with garden planning?

Question:

I’ve heard that home gardeners can request to work with a Master Gardener Volunteer for help with garden planning. How do we request this service if it is still available?

We have a Garden Mentorship Program that you may be interested in. This program is intended to match trained Master Gardener Volunteers with gardeners in their county (or a nearby county) in order to provide virtual (phone, email, etc) technical assistance and encouragement throughout the season. You can read more about this program and how to request a mentor here: https://extension.umaine.edu/gardening/garden-mentorship-program/.
