Agrilife Extension Resources
We promote research-based horticultural practices to help Texans create beautiful, productive home and community gardens and landscapes while conserving water and other natural resources. Both local food producers and the green industry are supported with the educational programs and tools they need to increase garden productivity and profitability.
