Power of Partnerships In Public Horticulture Poster Workshop

Objective(s):
Ed Moydell, Director of Bloedell Reserve, defined public horticulture as “the art and science of cultivating plants in spaces for public use and enrichment, including public gardens, conservatories, arboretums, municipal parks and gardens, cemeteries, museums with public landscapes, nature centers and zoological parks.” Within and among these practitioners of public horticulture, alliances play a key role in determining success. This poster workshop focuses on the opportunities for and outcomes from collaborations in public horticulture. Building relationships and subsequent partnerships can enhance fiscal and non-fiscal resources, visitation, collections, and many other areas. Universities and colleges, professional organizations, non-profits, and green industry can serve as partners to the benefit of all parties involved.
