The American Horticultural Society’s
Reciprocal Admissions Program (RAP) promotes horticulture
across America, encouraging people to visit gardens while
traveling. This program is a network of gardens with similar
objectives, encouraging members to discover, explore, and
share in this diverse community, striving to make “America
a Nation of Gardeners, a Land of Gardens.” Since its
inception in 1990, this program has grown and evolved to
represent a diverse community of more than 200 organizations
in 44 states, plus Canada and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
AHS members as well as members of the participating gardens
have access to a wide array of botanical gardens, arboreta,
and conservatories throughout North America offering special
admission privileges and many other benefits. The most
up-to-date list of participating gardens as well as details
on how to enjoy the benefits of RAP can be found in the
online
directory.
