Questions people ask

GMGA Annual Conference 2026 starts on October 16.

It takes place at Coastal Georgia Botanical Gardens in Savannah, Georgia.

The organizers welcome gardeners of all experience levels, including Master Gardeners, association members, non-members, and gardening enthusiasts.

It is a good fit for Georgia Master Gardeners and keen home gardeners, since it is open to members and non-members, beginners included, and Friday offers garden tours, a camellia trail walk and a dinner reception at the Coastal Georgia Botanical Gardens. Professional horticulturists or commercial growers seeking research-level content and large vendor exhibits would get less from it, because the audience is gardening enthusiasts and the sponsor list is short.

Gardening conference attendees usually wear casual, comfortable clothes, with walking shoes, hats and sun protection for outdoor garden tours in Savannah in October.
