Office Hours 2024

Join us for Virtual Plant/Question clinics!! At Office Hours, a panel of horticulture agents and specialists answer questions on a variety of issues including topics in Home Fruit & Vegetable Gardening, Ornamental Plants, Trees, and Turf. You can submit timely garden questions for a chance to be featured live during the clinic.  All questions that are submitted through the portal will be answered and posted for viewing after the session. These sessions are open to the public, so please share with friends and family!!  

Office Hours will start back up in May, but you can submit questions at any time!  All questions in the portal will be answered on a monthly basis between now and the startup or our live sessions for 2024.
