Gail Sanders

University of Illinois DuPage County Extension Master Gardener

More info about our presenter Gail Sanders:

Gail was raised in DuPage County and has been gardening since she was a child. Her mother was in charge of the flower beds, and her dad did the vegetables. Gail and her brothers got to weed everything.

In 2022, the University of Illinois Extension honored Gail by naming her the DuPage County Master Gardener (MG) of the Year. A MG since 2013, over the years, Gail has been active in many different gardening projects and provided service to our community by volunteering at sites including the DuPage County Care Center, the Western DuPage Special Recreation Association, and as a past leader of the MG team that maintains the gardens at Kline Creek Farm. Gail also shares her knowledge on many gardening subjects by giving tours of Cantigny gardens and gives presentations to the public through the DuPage County MG Speakers Program.
