Which of the following is an approved Master Gardener volunteer activity?

• A. Labeling a demonstration garden at the County Extension office
• B. Planting and maintaining church flower gardens
• C. Teaching plant propagation to school children
• D. Answering neighbors' garden questions

Answer: (A)

Master Gardener volunteers support the Extension’s educational mission by taking on supervised outreach activities that provide reliable horticultural information to the public. Labeling a demonstration garden at the County Extension office fits this role perfectly because it directly supports public learning: the signs identify plants and explain their care and purpose, helping visitors understand real garden scenarios in a controlled, educational setting. It’s a clear, official Extension activity that combines hands-on garden work with ongoing learning for the community.

Other options may involve worthwhile gardening efforts or outreach, but they aren’t the specific Extension-supported demonstration activity illustrated here, or they require different partnerships and approvals. Therefore, labeling a demonstration garden at the County Extension office is the best example of an approved Master Gardener volunteer activity.
