Currently only 25% of UW Botanic Gardens funding is provided by the state. The remaining fundraising is through events and visitor donations from people like you!
The Center for Urban Horticulture, opened in 1984, is major part of the University of Washington Botanic Gardens. It includes a 16-acre landscaped site with buildings and gardens, and the 74-acre Union Bay Natural Area, which provides publicly accessible wildlife habitat (more than 200 bird species have been sighted there) and an outdoor laboratory for UW research. The UW Botanic Gardens’ administrative offices are housed in Merrill Hall, along with associated faculty and research laboratories and greenhouses.
Please help us fund and maintain Seattle’s nexus for the scientific and horticultural communities to gather, learn and be inspired!
