About

The Atlanta Botanical Garden, a non-profit organization started by community volunteers in 1976, has grown to be one of the top cultural and botanical institutions in the Southeast. Its mission is to develop and maintain plant collections for display, education, research, conservation, and enjoyment. Located on 30 acres in midtown Atlanta, with an additional site 45 miles to the northeast in Gainesville, Georgia, the vision of the Atlanta Botanical Garden is to be an iconic destination and global leader, dynamically connecting people with plants in support of a thriving planet. The Atlanta Botanical Garden conducts its plant conservation efforts through the lens of the Southeastern Center for Conservation. The mission of the Center is to lead innovative strategies and partnerships to conserve imperiled plants and natural communities, carried out as it grows to become a local, regional, and international hub for the conservation of rare plants and ecosystems. This is achieved through collections management; interdisciplinary research; restoration of priority habitats; educational outreach; and the vigorous pursuit of collaborative opportunities.
