Academic Partnerships
The University of Maryland Arboretum & Botanical Gardens directly support the academic classes and research of our faculty, staff, and students. Parternships have focused on plant idenfication and landscape architecture, but also combating food insecurity, alleviating mental health conditions through time outdoors, artistic inspiration, Latin poetry, and more.
Many of these partnerships are listed below.
Our staff are available to speak to your class or club about the work we do on campus to promote sustainability, create greenspaces to enjoy, conserve water, support wildlife habitat, further classroom knowledge, and improve the health of everyone who comes to campus. Some of our partnerships are listed below. Email us to schedule a tour or talk today!
