'''Martin the Master Gardener''' is the leader of the [[G.A.G.]] organisation and resides in the [[Draynor Village]] market by a pig pen owned by them. He is the starting point for two quests: [[A Fairy Tale Part I]] and [[A Fairy Tale Part II]]. As the master of [[Farming]], Martin sells the [[Farming cape|Farming skill cape]] to players who have reached [[Level 99 skills|level 99]] in Farming for a price of 99,000 [[coins]]. Martin also says he has 13 children.

==Pickpocketing Martin==
He can be pick-pocketed for seeds at level 38 [[Thieving]]. If players fail, he will say ''Cor blimey, mate! What are ye doing in me pockets?'', and they will take 30 [[damage]] and be stunned for 5 seconds.

Sometimes, Martin wanders into the pigpen, and the gate is closed by players. This traps him, and restricts his field of movement, thus making him easier to pickpocket. This also prevents the [[market guard]]s from entering. Players may sell the seeds to [[Olivia]] after a certain time passed. In this case, Martin will stay in the pen until he is let out by a player, or a [[system update]] occurs. After a certain time, he will respawn outside the pen.{{fact}}

==Fairy Tale quest series==

[[File:G.A.G. Pigpen.png|thumb|left|The pigpen owned by the G.A.G.]]

During the quest series, players learn that Martin and several other gardeners are part of the [[G.A.G.|Group of Advanced Gardeners]]. As gardeners, they tend to farming patches, and usually demand payment for their services.

During the quests ''[[Fairytale I - Growing Pains]]'' and ''[[Fairytale II - Cure a Queen]]'', Martin features at the start of the quests. In Part 1, he talks about how none of his crops are growing, and requests the player to ask the other farmers why this is the case. After killing [[Tanglefoot]], players will inform Martin that it would be okay to grow his crops.

In Part 2, Martin says that he is surprised that the player came to him after they had "apparently" lied to him about how the crops will grow.

After Part 3, To have your patches automatically weeded, you can talk to Martin the Master Gardener to unlock the ability to have gardeners keep your farming patches weed free. Then, talk to a gardener at one of the patches. (When the [[Fairy Queen]] teleports you to Martin near the end of the quest, talking to him ends the quest. You then have to talk to him again, after the quest rewards, to unlock this ability. If any patch has preexisting weeds, you'll have to remove them before this takes effect.)

==Trivia==
*When speaking to Martin, he asks if it was you going through his pockets even if your thieving skill is lower than 38. It is unknown whether this is a glitch or not.
*He was supposed to receive a [[graphical update]] along with Draynor Village rework, but Jagex confirmed in the FAQ that he looks good so he won't get updated. Despite this, he was updated in the [[combat beta]] servers, although his [[chathead]] does not match this model, even though the chathead was updated as well. This was released into the live game on [[5 September]] [[2012]], well over a year after the Draynor update.
*When you used to attempt to pick his pockets, the message in the chatbox was displayed as "You attempt to pick the Martin's pocket." This has been fixed.
*If you select master farmers as a challenge in the noticeboard, thieving Martin will not contribute to this.
