We continually learn and share our horticultural knowledge and enjoyment of gardening with our community through volunteer activities and education.
Our Vision:
To be a trusted resource for gardening education and to promote the health of our community.
Two ways we promote the health of our community are through our grants and our scholarships. Check out our grants page to see how we partner with local non-profits.
We also award scholarships to north central Wisconsin students with at least a 3.0 GPA who are pursuing a Bachelor or Associate Degree in a horticultural-related field. Interested students should connect with their financial aid office.
The two students awarded the 2023 NCWMGA scholarships (pictured above with some of our scholarship committee members) are Abby Jackson (Biology major with a minor in Water Resources) and Maddalena Martello (Botany major), both UWSP students. Congratulations!

Since 1995, Marathon County has offered the Master Gardener class. When this organization started in 1998, it originally included Marathon, Lincoln and Langlade counties. We organized as a corporation in 2007. We obtained 501c3 Federal Tax Exemption status in October 2009 and State of Wisconsin Exemption status in January 2010. For decades we have held our annual spring Plant Sale and our July Garden Walk. We annually host Garden Visions, central Wisconsin's largest gardening conference. We are a long-time supporter of Monk Botanical Gardens located at 1800 N. First Street, Wausau, 54401, culminating in the completion in 2021 of our Shade and Hosta Garden on the Monk grounds.
