The Virginia Cooperative Extension York County/Poquoson Master Gardeners established the Poquoson Learning Garden in 2013. It is a "sunny" garden that compliments the York Learning Garden and Arboretum, a predominately "shade" garden. It is composed of individual raised bed gardens for vegetables, herbs, cut flowers and perennials. The adaptive Gardening sections includes a variety of ideas for wheelchair or limited mobility gardeners or those with space limitations or constraints. The garden includes a large outdoor classroom and is a great place for learning about sustainable gardening practices that can be introduced into home landscapes and garden.

Our mission is to "Preserve and Promote the History of Poquoson". Home to the Colonial Beekeepers, the York-Poquoson Master Gardeners, Poquoson Learning Garden, and the Marsh Walk & Nature trail.
