Since 1987, the Georgeson Botanical Garden has provided outreach education in applied plant sciences at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Our goal is to provide hands-on educational experiences for all ages, from preschool children to senior citizens. Our basra philosophy is to introduce principles of plant science and botany m some familiar, non-threatening settings, i.e. the garden and greenhouse, and progress to more complex laboratory experiences. The program involves extensive use of field trips, one-on-one student experiments, classroom visitations, participation in science fairs and science nights, apprenticeship programs and youth employment training programs. Listed below are some of the current and past programs.
