Opportunities for Volunteering and Community Engagement
Our Master Gardeners embrace opportunities for volunteering and community engagement, as they facilitate working collaboratively to help solve gardening problems and challenges within our communities, and to spread up-to-date horticultural information.
The MGAA supports its members by posting opportunities for volunteering and community engagement. Opportunities are added as they arise, so please check back often for new postings.
If you are interested in any of these opportunities, please connect with the person or organization directly, using the contact information provided.

Writers Wanted - Calgary Horticultural Society
Writers Wanted
The Calgary Horticultural Society is looking for some new writers to submit some articles for their 2018/2019 magazine.
Please contact Julie Barringer, Managing Editor (), or our MGAA Secretary (), if you are interested in writing an article!
The CHS has a list of topics that are trending for 2019, but are open to suggestions as well.
Submission should be approximately 300 words for 1 page and 600 words for 2 pages, with 2-4 photos. If you don't have photos, the CHS can add from their collection or request some from their volunteer photographers. Julie would appreciate receiving all articles by Saturday, March 16, 2019. This allows you to be finished the article before the busiest time of the season, and it allows the CHS to be well-supplied with material for the summer months when we publish monthly. If you would like to submit an additional article after the March 16 deadline it will be a welcome contribution as well!!
