🚨2 days left in our Crowdfund campaign!🚨
Update: We are excited to share that we’ve found the perfect vehicle!
https://crowdfund.vt.edu/project/49737
We are hoping to purchase a 2025 Subaru Ascent (Premium, 7-passenger), a demo vehicle with only 2,500 miles. It’s exactly what we need to safely and reliably transport youth across the county and throughout Virginia.
We are incredibly grateful for the support we have received and we’re getting close!!

The Piedmont Master Gardeners will hold their annual Spring Plant Sale from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, May 2, at Albemarle Square Shopping Center in Charlottesville. The sale will offer thousands of annuals, perennials, vegetables, fruit-bearing plants, herbs and houseplants, including a wide selection of native plants. Bags of locally produced compost also will be available. In addition, shoppers can purchase gently used tools, yard ornaments and outdoor furniture at The Green Elephant, a garden-themed thrift store. Cash and credit cards will be accepted. Master Gardeners will be on hand to help customers with their plant selections and will staff a Help Desk for answering gardening questions. An array of displays and information tables will cover such topics as conservation landscaping, soil health, composting, pest management, and controlling invasive plants. All proceeds support the many free and low-cost programs the Piedmont Master Gardeners offer to the community.

Support our Growth 🌱
We need the right support to keep it thriving. We’re close to our 2026 Double Our Miles goal, but we still need a little over $8,000 in the next 25 days to help fund a new vehicle that supports our expanding reach.

Albemarle Cooperative Extension is growing, especially our 4‑H Youth Program, and one six‑passenger vehicle can only take us so far. Thanks to Virginia Tech Giving Day and generous supporters, we’ve raised $30,000 of our $40,000 goal! This strong momentum reflects a shared belief in the power of research-based education and community connection. We are seeking the final $10,000 by May 1, 2026, to purchase a second state vehicle and meet this growing demand.
