Our Garden Sponsorship program is designed as an opportunity for generous individuals and businesses to support one or more of our more than 40 garden areas. Sponsor funds are used to purchase supplies which our incredible volunteer garden adopters and park staff use to maintain and enhance the gardens. A portion of sponsor funds are also set aside for an endowment to ensure the sustainability of the gardens.
Several gardens are still available for sponsorship and/or adoption. Please contact us if you are interested in supporting a particular garden area and helping ensure the Springfield Botanical Gardens continues to be an extraordinary place for generations to come.
