Idaho Botanical Gardens

The Idaho Botanical Garden, located in the historic Old Penitentiary District of Boise, Idaho, is a 501 nonprofit organization dedicated to connecting people, plants, and nature. The Garden serves as a gathering space in the Boise community and advocates environmental stewardship. Spanning 15 acres, the Idaho Botanical Garden is a premier collection of plants cultivated for the unique sagebrush steppe ecosystem of the Treasure Valley aimed at showcasing the region's biodiversity.

As a 501 nonprofit, the Idaho Botanical Garden does not receive government funding but instead relies on donations, grants, admission fees, special event fundraisers, and a membership program to remain operational. Community partnerships and collaborations through jointly hosted events and sponsorships are other key elements for functionality.
