The Civic Garden Center Hotline is Hot Stuff - and it's Free!

The Civic Garden Center and Ohio State University Horticulture Helpline

The Civic Garden Center 's Horticulture Hotline has merged with the OSU Extension Service, to form the CGC-OSU Extension Horticulture Helpline .  Call 513-221-TREE to speak with volunteer specialists from both groups, many of whom are Master Gardeners or shoot us an email with your question:  helpline@civicgardencenter.org.   Volunteers are able to either answer the inquiry immediately, or research the issue and get back to you within 48 - 72 hours.  The Horticulture Helpline is offered free of charge Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm (four days per week during the busier gardening seasons), and provides research-based, earth friendly answers to gardening questions.
