Nurturing

the Next Generation of Gardeners

The Tri-County Master Gardener Association (TCMGA) leads fun, hands-on gardening programs for children and youth across Charleston, Dorchester, and Berkeley Counties.

From school gardens and environmental science lessons to after-school clubs and library sessions, our programs help young minds grow curiosity, confidence, and a love for nature—one seed at a time.

Watch Young Minds Grow in the Green Thumbs Program

Not every student gets the chance to learn through gardening—and that means missing out on hands-on lessons in nature and responsibility.

The Green Thumbs program brings Master Gardeners into schools across Charleston, Dorchester, and Berkeley Counties, where kids plant, grow, and explore hands-on lessons in science and nutrition.

By turning classrooms into gardens, we help students grow confidence, curiosity, and deeper roots in the world around them.
