The Speakers’ Bureau is composed of volunteers who have been trained by Alabama Cooperative Extension System to assist County and Regional Agents with horticulture community education and outreach. Utilizing these volunteers, CCMGA is able to offer Master Gardeners to present 20 to 30-minute Power Point Presentations on a variety of gardening topics which will be accompanied by handouts for your members or attendees.  If you have a need for a topic not listed, we will make an effort to accommodate your request.

To request a speaker for your group, contact CCMGA at least 45 days prior to your meeting date.
