FMGA is a non-profit gardening group that includes master gardeners and others interested in gardening. Members do not have to be certified Master Gardeners but many are. The group meets monthly August – May for horticultural emphasis presentations and hosts an annual plant sale. Proceeds from this event support Fayette non-profit community horticultural projects and a college scholarship for Fayette residents majoring in horticulture or agriculture.
