Ask a Master Gardener
Black Hills Farmers Market
Each Saturday of the summer starting in May, volunteer Master Gardeners oversee a booth at the Black Hills Farmers Market, located at 245 East Omaha Street, Rapid City, SD in Market Park. Hours are normally 8:30 am to 12:00 pm and are dependent on the weather and market business. MG volunteers answer horticulture questions brought by customers of the market. The booth is labeled with a banner “ASK A MASTER GARDENER” and includes resource material on a variety of subjects. July at the Market is “Kid’s Month” and the Master Gardeners provide a garden related craft or activity each Saturday of the month.
Garden Center Volunteers
Some garden centers in town request Master Gardeners to be available early in the season to answer questions about trees, shrubs, and bedding plants.
