The Utah State University Botanical Center is dedicated to building a more sustainable Utah through community education. Through education and innovation we demonstrate and practice sustainable principles which can significantly reduce impacts on the land and other valuable resources. Demonstrations use environmentally friendly products, recycled materials, and water-conserving landscapes. Sustainable home landscaping, wetland restoration, habitat creation, and water quality enhancement are all highlighted on public open space.
Our volunteers can serve as tour guides for the Utah House landscape, and wetland areas; assist with K-6 field trips, and help maintain our beautiful water-wise landscape, this is an excellent opportunity to meet other community-minded individuals, make new friends, and help support an important educational resource.
I have volunteered at the USU Botanical Garden helping to maintain the beautiful landscaping found there. I have also volunteered as a tour guide and has assisted with Elementary Field Trips. I have enjoyed using my talents to give back to the community. -Alene Cook, Woods Cross, Utah
