To limit the risk of transmitting COVID-19 coronavirus, the United States Botanic Garden (USBG) has changed its operations. The Conservatory and gated outdoor gardens are temporarily closed to the public while Bartholdi Park and the Terrace Gardens remain open. Please monitor this website for updates to operating status. Many resources can be accessed online, including educational materials, virtual tours, informational videos, and our fall programs will all be online. Connect with resources from home at www.USBG.gov/AtHome.
While the U.S. Botanic Garden might be closed, we are sharing our Garden with you online! We invite you to connect with us here and explore from home. We're sharing virtual tours, online programs (including weekly online yoga and cooking demos), plant spotlight stories, at-home activities for kids and families including coloring pages and lesson plans, videos, and more.
As we celebrate our 200th anniversary this year, we're also sharing photos and stories from our deeply-rooted history. Join us to celebrate the beauty and joy plants bring to the world!
