Education
Education is central to everything we do. We provide learning opportunities that help people of all ages connect with the natural world, understand their role in it, and contribute to building a better future.
The Alberta Botanic Garden celebrates the beauty of plants and nature, encouraging individuals and communities to reconnect with the environment. We also focus on transforming damaged landscapes into thriving, beautiful oases that bring nature into everyday life.
Hand-planting organic vegetables and fruits is a passion of ours, and we love sharing this experience with others. At the Alberta Botanic Garden, we teach visitors how to grow food in a more sustainable and natural way, using permaculture principles.
Permaculture is a holistic approach to gardening and farming that works with nature, rather than against it. By observing and understanding natural ecosystems, permaculture designs aim to create self-sustaining environments that minimize waste, conserve resources, and promote biodiversity. Visitors can learn how to apply these principles in their own gardens, fostering healthier, more resilient landscapes while producing nutritious, organic food.
Beyond Sustainability: Embracing Regenerative Practices for a Healthier Planet
Sustainability is a core value at The Alberta Botanic Garden. We are committed to regenerative sustainability, which focuses on improving systems rather than simply minimizing harm. This approach benefits the environment, society, and the economy.
We strive to create positive change by restoring ecosystems, reducing waste, and promoting practices that support long-term health and resilience. Our work goes beyond sustainability; it aims to regenerate the land, restore biodiversity, and build a stronger connection between people and nature.
By adopting regenerative practices, we can all contribute to a healthier planet. Whether it's through sustainable gardening, reducing our carbon footprint, or supporting local communities, every action counts. At the Alberta Botanic Garden, we hope to inspire others to join the movement and take steps toward a more sustainable and regenerative future.
Creativity and culture are at the heart of the Alberta Botanic Garden. We challenge conventional thinking to provoke new ideas, captivate imaginations, and inspire meaningful change.
The future is ours to shape—a future where a healthy planet leads to healthy people. At the Alberta Botanic Garden, we aim to share and celebrate art, music, and cultures from around the world, enriching the experience for all who visit. Our goal is to offer you a day filled with inspiration, taking you on a memorable journey toward living a healthier, more meaningful life, filled with purpose and hope for a brighter future.
