Plant It Forward

Be an Advocate

Help Ensure No Plant Goes Extinct

For 95 years Santa Barbara Botanic Garden has invited everyone to share in the wonder of our natural world and conserve California’s native plants and habitats, the basis for all life on Earth, including our own. 

The Garden plays an increasingly important role in our community, offering a safe place for people of all ages to reconnect with each other and the natural world. As more and more people realize the benefits of being in nature, it’s time to build upon this momentum, fostering a greater awareness of the regenerative power of native plants and the role they play to ensure our way of life for generations to come.
