Description

Join everyone to learn about the story of both the land and the organization that comprise today’s Pittsburgh Botanic Garden. Hear how a group of dedicated gardeners has taken an idea and developed it into a rich community asset. This program will be led by Dr. Mark Miller, Education & Exhibits Director, who will cover the history of the land before the Garden and the immense workload involved in its development. Dr. Miller will also talk in depth about the conversion of this land from its past as farming and coal mining land, to its current form as land that provides environment-based economic development.
