Pima County Co-op Extension in Green Valley, AZ is a dedicated organization that partners with the Tucson community to create a space that serves, educates, and inspires its members. They have already secured $140k and are currently fundraising an additional $30k to build a greenhouse that will support their efforts to educate Pima County residents, conduct research, explore sustainable gardening methods, and share their knowledge with the community. This greenhouse will also contribute to their program financially through plant propagation for their semi-annual plant sales.
Pima County Co-op Extension offers a wide range of services and resources, including free in-person and online gardening classes, library talks, Zoom presentations, sage seminars, home garden tours, plant sales, demonstration garden tours, and plant clinics. They also provide the popular "Tucson Garden Handbook," a comprehensive guide for successful gardening in the desert environment, covering topics such as cacti and agave, desert-adapted trees, vegetables and herbs, citrus, flowers, watering, soil management, and integrated pest management. With their knowledgeable Master Gardener volunteers and online resources, they are dedicated to supporting home gardeners and promoting sustainable gardening practices.
