WELCOME TO THE FIRST ANNUAL VIRTUAL ARIZONA PLANT FESTIVAL

Now more than ever, our world needs the environmental, economic and social well-being that plants provide. In Arizona and throughout the world, climate change, population growth and urbanization are distancing us from both the benefits of plants and our important roles as plant stewards.


Arizona has diverse geographic, environmental, cultural and historic roots. Supported by these deep, unique roots, Arizonans have embraced innovative conservation and sustainable practices. These innovations can help demonstrate, educate and inspire people in Arizona and around the world to expand the benefits of plants to communities and expand our role as plant stewards.

Since we need plants now more than ever, we’ve launched the First Annual Arizona Plant Festival virtually this year, so wherever you are you can visit exhibits that engage, empower and delight you. From now through September 2021, we’ll add new exhibits to the virtual plant festival. On November 14, 2020, we will host a virtual Plant Festival Tour. All exhibits and recordings of special events will be maintained here through Fall 2021, so please come back often to learn and enjoy!


We hope to see you in person at the 2021 Arizona Plant Festival at the University of Arizona Campus in Tucson. Watch this website for updates!
