Mission:

Our mission is to develop and maintain well curated collections, outdoor gardens, state-of- the- art plant growth facilities in support of research, teaching for Yale faculty and students, as well as informative and inspirational experience for visitors.

About the Garden

Sitting on eight acres, with six greenhouses comprising around a third of an acre under glass, Marsh Botanical Garden offers support for researchers, faculty and students at Yale, as well as an informative and eye-catching experience for visitors. In the summer, the naturalistic beds and wildflower plantings provide color and attract birds and butterflies. In spring, bulb displays, early flowering shrubs, and trees add color to the season. Our plantings include many woody plants with surprising fall color, both from leaf and fruit display.
