UNH Extension Master Gardeners will be working in the soil to maintain our luscious gardens which include pollinator and bird-friendly plants, a rain garden space, vegetable gardens, raised beds, and more. Ask all of your pressing questions about your plants at home, or find out how to get involved in gardening with NH Audubon and UNH Extension.

As an on-going partnership between New Hampshire Audubon and University of New Hampshire Extension’s Master Gardener Program, the Demonstration Gardens provide a place for sharing best practices in eco-friendly home and community gardening, which enhance human health and well-being and wildlife habitat. 

Dress for walking in the grass on flat but uneven terrain. Protect yourself against insects and the sun with long pants, sleeves, sunscreen, and insect repellant. Gardeners will not be on site during inclement weather.

Building hours are 11am to 5pm on Thursdays, so plan accordingly. Visit the bathrooms, gift shop, and meet our animal ambassadors after you explore the gardens. Children are welcomed and encouraged.
