The Master Gardener program described is associated with which state's extension system?

• A. Penn State Extension
• B. University of California Cooperative Extension
• C. Texas A&M AgriLife Extension
• D. University of Florida IFAS Extension

Answer: (A)

Master Gardener programs are run through state extension systems, which are outreach arms of land‑grant universities. In Pennsylvania, that system is Penn State Extension, tied to Penn State University’s College of Agricultural Sciences. Through Penn State Extension, trained Master Gardeners provide horticultural education and community service across the state. The other options correspond to other states’ extension services—California's University of California Cooperative Extension, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, and Florida's IFAS Extension. Since the question asks which state's extension system this Master Gardener program is associated with, the match is Penn State Extension.
