American Association of Botanic Gardens

The American Association of Botanic Gardens and Arboreta (AABGA) is a professional organization that supports botanical gardens and arboreta across the United States. It promotes the importance of plant conservation, education, and research. By connecting these institutions, the AABGA fosters collaboration, shares best practices, and provides resources for staff development. This helps institutions grow their collections, engage their communities, and effectively educate the public about plants and ecosystems. Ultimately, the AABGA plays a crucial role in promoting the value of plants in our environment and enhancing the role of botanical gardens as centers for learning and conservation.
