Society of Friends of the Graz Botanical Garden
What does the company stand for?
The Society of Friends of the Botanic Garden has set itself the goal of promoting the Graz Botanic Garden and the idea of nature conservation and the environment. To this end, it organizes exhibitions and events for all those interested in botany. It supports educational formats as part of the Freiland Lab. It also organizes voluntary work at events in and around the Botanic Garden. The subject areas are very diverse. Looking beyond the boundaries of natural science creates exciting points of contact with social issues, art and culture.
Free lectures take you to the most remote habitats in the world and invite you to marvel and explore. Members of the association are informed about current events through regular program mailings.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Botanic Garden and the greenhouses.
