Guided Tour of the Alaska Botanical Garden

On this tour, we will literally stop and smell the roses.

The walking tour will start with a brief wildlife safety talk. Next, I will highlight the entry beds and we will work our way up to the front gate. Once inside the fence and plaza area, we will stop to talk about the history of ABG. We will follow the half-mile paved loop around to the several perennial gardens, research plot and outdoor classroom. The tour will end with the newest addition, the greenhouse, then we will exit through the nursery & gift shop.

You will leave with newfound knowledge about some of the hardy plants in Alaska.

My experience with the Alaska Botanical Garden, as well as my local knowledge, give me a unique perspective. I've worked in tourism in Alaska for over ten years and love to talk about Alaska. I also enjoy exploring Alaska on the weekends so I love to give tips and advice to others and hear about their experiences! I love talking about Alaska and plants with people!
