In 1984, The Idaho Botanical Garden was established on a 42-acre site of old prison grounds leased from the Idaho State Historical Society and the State of Idaho. Local botanist, Dr. Christopher Davidson, assembles the first board of directors comprised of 17 civic leaders and professionals. The Garden founders and board built an irrigation system, nature trails, and planted two acres, including the Meditation, Rose and Herb Gardens.

To be our region's preferred space to gather and experience nature and to encourage advocacy in environmental stewardship.

Our mission is to grow our community by connecting people, plants, and nature. We believe that the Treasure Valley deserves a place to gather and experience nature together!
