Our Story

Our story is one of humble beginnings and grand aspirations. Unlike many public gardens that start with significant endowments or land donations, Huntsville Botanical Garden was born in 1988 from the collective dream of 14 visionary citizens. These individuals gathered with a unified goal: to establish a botanical garden that would serve as a beacon of beauty and learning for Huntsville, Alabama and the surrounding region.
