The North Carolina Botanical Garden cultivates connections between plants, people and place through science, engagement and conservation. For more than half a century, the North Carolina Botanical Garden has championed efforts to conserve the State’s botanical legacy. Today, the North Carolina Botanical Garden manages more than 1,200 acres of garden and conservation lands, safeguards rare and endangered plant species from extinction, and educates new generations of plant enthusiasts and environmental citizens.

We invite you to explore rare wildflowers in our Piedmont habitat, soak up the sun in our Courtyard Gardens, or set your youngsters free in the Children’s Wonder Garden.

You can make an impact and support the Garden’s mission today.

The North Carolina Botanical Garden Foundation serves as a land trust to protect ecologically important lands near the Garden and beyond. They own and hold conservation easements on over 300 acres of land adjacent to property protected by the Garden and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. As we see more and more development and construction in our region, preserving habitats for future generations is imperative. Help us raise funds to purchase land or hold conservation easements on land that hosts significant biodiversity of flora and fauna or provides important wildlife corridors.
