Demonstration Gardens


Jefferson County CSU Extension Master Gardeners maintain two on-site gardens that are open to the public. The Plant Select garden offers beautiful displays of water-wise and climate tested plants.  There’s a kiosk in the garden containing information on the plants and their growing requirements. 

The Horticulture Research and Demonstration Garden (also called the Grow and Give Garden) contains on-going studies including blueberry production, apple tree training, tomato and pepper variety trials and innovative vegetable garden season extension tools.  Every season we donate produce to food banks. We are also developing an insectary garden to attract beneficial insects. 

These gardens can be visited at any time.  Colorado Master Gardeners are often working in the gardens  during the summer months.
