Garden Development Fund

2021 marked 175 years of the Botanic Garden on its current site. But what is Cambridge University Botanic Garden going to look like in the future?

We are planning some exciting projects, including a new Ticket Office at our Station Road entrance, transforming the ground floor of Cory Lodge into an exhibition area to display objects from the Garden’s Herbarium and Archive and the re-modelling the Eastern half of the Garden. If you would like to help us to develop the Garden so that we continue to offer a fantastic visitor experience, support world-class plant science research and conservation, and tell as many people as possible about the amazing world of plants, please consider donating to the Garden Development Fund.
