Event Description
Naples Botanical Garden is proud to announce one of our most ambitious projects yet: the Evenstad Horticulture Campus. First announced in our Fall 2018 Member Magazine, the completed project will feature state-of-the-art greenhouses, shadehouses, a potting area, nurseries, and recycling center. Included in the design of the Horticulture Center are a new building complex with offices and storage for the equipment and tools needed to tend not only to our new growing spaces, but the Garden’s 170 acres.
Located on the southeast side of the Garden, the Horticulture Campus will support our mission by allowing staff to care for current display gardens, restore and grow living collections, collect and exchange seeds and cuttings with colleagues around the world, expand conservation leadership with gardens through the Caribbean, develop more and more as a teaching campus, and continue as a community partners in Collier and Lee counties.
