Friends of Wellington Botanic Garden

The Friends of the Wellington Botanic Garden are a group of supporters of the mahi of Wellington Botanic Garden. Some of us are gardeners, some are plant geeks, some just love the Garden! We are united in the kaupapa of supporting the Garden, their staff, and their mahi in conservation, education, and horticulture. Since our early beginnings, one of our goals has been to provide a guiding service for the Garden. As Wellington has grown to become a destination to hundreds of cruise ships each year, we too have grown our services to help travellers navigate the garden and help visitors get the best experience of the Wellington Botanic Garden. The easiest way to get involved is by following us on Facebook or send us an email to wbgfriends@gmail.com
