Support the garden

On behalf of the David Douglas Botanical Garden Society, I would like to thank the great community support we received for our annual plant sale on the May long weekend.

On behalf of the David Douglas Botanical Garden Society, I would like to thank the great community support we received for our annual plant sale on the May long weekend. 

It is usually a large event held at UNBC but due to COVID-19 restrictions we had to find a new way to do things. We offered an on-ine sale with delivery by our volunteer drivers, as well as by appointment at our compound at the university. It was a great success and helps us continue to maintain our Education Display Garden at UNBC. 

We are continuing to move forward with our garden expansion project. We have adopted a functional building plan and are in the process of hiring a landscape architect. We are actively pursuing grants and donations, and although the issues around the pandemic have slowed us down, we are excited and determined to complete this expansion.

Many of our shrubs and perennials are blooming and we invite all members of the public to walk through and enjoy our garden at UNBC.
