Programming
The Fredericton Botanic Garden is about more than just gardens; it’s about community. Although the Garden is an excellent place for quiet solitude and reflection, it can also be a place of friendship, companionship, and community.
Throughout the year, we offer a variety of workshops, events, walks, and talks, in the Garden, the Resource Centre, and the Greenhouses. Garden members benefit from advance registration and if there is a cost, it is reduced for them.
