About Us

Idaho Botanical Garden (IBG) is a 501(c)3 organization celebrating 40 years in the Treasure Valley! Guests of all ages learn, find inspiration and celebrate together in our 15 acres of beautifully curated spaces. We are a community gathering space dedicated to connecting people of all ages, abilities and circumstances to the natural world through STEAM education, sustainable horticulture and cultural events. 

Our Mission

Cultivate. Educate. Celebrate. We grow our community by connecting people, plants and nature.

Our Vision

We strive to be our region’s preferred space to gather and experience nature, and to encourage advocacy in environmental stewardship. Our vision is to create a special place in Idaho where diversity of our plant collections is just as strong as the diversity of the people who gather in our space to help us build, not only a strong ecosystem, but a stronger community for all.

Core Program Areas

A resource for horticultural knowledge and conservation, IBG’s living museum hosts a variety of events, from educational programs highlighting the ecology of the Intermountain West to concerts featuring regional and national artists.
