This is your Garden

This is your garden... for classes, for quiet reflection, for learning new gardening skills, for celebrated programming like Flower Piano or simply to enjoy nature's beauty.

Whatever way you experience the Garden, it is yours, to cherish and support. The Garden depends on the generosity of people like you. Private gift support - memberships and donations - is essential to covering nearly one-half of the Garden's annual operating expense. With your engagement, investment, and support, we can help secure the Garden now and for future generations. Below are the many ways you can make a difference.

Planned Giving

San Francisco Botanical Garden has served our community for more than three quarters of a century, and we are dedicated to fulfilling our important mission for the benefit of generations to come.
