Help the N.C. Arboretum

Help the N.C. Arboretum

The public has stepped up to contribute nearly $50,000 to the N.C. Arboretum’s Staff Support Fund, allowing staff to remain employed and create innovative programming while the arboretum campus remains closed to the public. 

  • The ecoEXPLORE youth education program is teaching K-8 students and their parents how to find plants and animals in their own backyards. www.ecoexplore.net.
  • Free weekly adult education classes are being offered online through the month of April. www.ncarboretum.org/education-programs/adult-education-classes.
  • The “Our Gardens, Your Home” campaign offers virtual tours and online tutorials for enjoying the gardens safely from home. www.ncarboretum.org/our-gardens-your-home.
  • Design and production for fall and summer exhibits are ongoing, as is maintenance of gardens and buildings, so that the arboretum can reopen as soon as possible.
