​Throughout the year and all around the city of Virginia Beach, we offer Ask a Master Gardener (AMG) Clinics at Farmers Markets, Garden Centers, and many VB Special Events! Clinics are staffed by Master Gardener volunteers to assist the public face-to-face. Volunteers are prepared to answer general gardening questions, as well as troubleshoot gardening and insect problems. Visit our booth and let us help you with your gardening questions!
