Welcome to the Master Gardener Volunteer Training
- CambiarMaster Gardener Volunteer Program Mission
We prepare volunteers to be peer educators who build relationships with community audiences to integrate local experience and research based knowledge in planning for and initiating steps to manage gardens, lawns, and landscapes with an emphasis on food security and environmental stewardship.
Master Gardener Volunteer Program Vision
Adults, youth, and families who engage in our garden-based educational programs expand their learning networks and ecological gardening skills towards greater resilience and connections. As a result, they experience enhanced health and wellness, food security, ecological literacy, environmental stewardship, and they embrace sustainable community practices.

Honey bee health is a critical issue today. The Department of Agriculture and Market's Division of Plant Industry strives to assist beekeepers in maintaining their colonies in a healthy condition. Through inspection, certification, education, and outreach to beekeepers, the Division works to ensure the health of honey bees. As of December 23, 2021, all beekeepers in New York State are required to register with the Department of Agriculture and Markets and to renew their registration annually. Beekeepers must also indicate if they intend to sell nucleus (nucs) colonies.

Read the above page on 'Beech Leaf Disease - Invasive Species Center'.
Most often humans are responsible for the spread of plant diseases meaning that spread of many diseases could be prevented by restricting and/or regulating the movement of plants, firewood, and wood products. Did you know that in the state of New York, it is illegal to transport untreated firewood more than 50 miles from its source within New York State? It is also illegal to bring untreated firewood into New York State. Click here to learn more. Regulations like these are commonly disregarded.
In this weeks forum post, thinking about plant diseases and their economic, ecological, and social effects, as well as the role humans have in their dispersal:
- What can you do in your personal life to increase awareness among your family and friends?
- What can we do as Master Gardener Volunteers to increase public awareness?
- What other things do you think can and should be done by other organizations?
- Check out the Don't Move Firewood campaign.
- Check out how the NYS DEC is tracking Beech Leaf Disease.

Authorities in New York prohibit the movement of all types of untreated firewood into the state from outside sources.

- it has been heat-treated to 71° C (160° F) for 75 minutes
- it is labeled as “New York Approved Heat-treated Firewood/Pest Free” with the producer’s name and address
