Call for Speakers

We are thrilled to invite you to be part of our upcoming 2025 International Master Gardener Conference! As we prepare for this exciting four-day virtual event, we are launching a Call for Speakers, and we believe your expertise would bring tremendous value to our program.

This VIRTUAL event will run August 25-28, 2025, and is hosted by the Texas Master Gardener Program. 

“There is No Planet B”

Your participation would not only showcase the depth of knowledge from across different states and provinces but also highlight the innovative work being done on a global scale. This is a fantastic opportunity to connect with an international audience, inspire fellow horticulture professionals, and motivate Master Gardener volunteers worldwide. We encourage presentations that tackle broader, global horticulture challenges and solutions to align with our international focus.

If you know of any other individuals or groups whose expertise would contribute valuable presentations, we encourage you to share this opportunity with them. We are always looking to feature diverse perspectives from across all communities.

In addition to technical topics, we are particularly interested in garden-related human-interest stories—whether they are personal journeys, community impacts, or innovative projects that inspire and engage audiences. We believe these stories can bring a unique and personal touch to the conference, showcasing the transformative power of horticulture.

We would be honored to have you share your insights and experiences at this prestigious event. Please consider submitting a proposal.

The deadline for submissions is December 13, 2024—don’t let superstition hold you back! Your proposal is sure to bring good fortune!
