The American Public Gardens Association's mission is Advancing Public Gardens as a force for positive change in their communities through national leadership, advocacy and innovation.
People and Gardens is a place where you can find timely (and archived) information about how your peers and their institutions are becoming a force for positive change.
Have news about your garden that you'd like to share? Contact Caitlin Simkovich at csimkovich@publicgardens.org.
