Learn
At the Botanic Garden of Smith College, teaching and learning are at the heart of our work. We invite learners to create meaning and build knowledge from their experiences with our staff, spaces, collections and gardens. Through the unique lens of plants, ecology and the history of botanical study, we hope to inspire learners to develop the knowledge and passion needed to act in support of building a more sustainable, equitable and just world.
Students
We are a botanic garden for the liberal arts. This means that we work with nearly every department on campus, connecting students to our spaces and collections through diverse academic lenses. Do you want support in figuring out how to study plants at Smith? Learn more.
