Friends of the Auckland Botanic Gardens

Become our friend

The Friends is a non-profit organisation with over 400 members who enjoy a programme of events and activities that support the Auckland Botanic Gardens.

You don’t have to be a gardener to be a part of this great organisation, a desire to support the Gardens is all that is needed.

The Friends have various opportunities for members to meet both socially and in volunteering activities throughout the Gardens. They raise funds to support garden developments and stage great events including the Visiting Artist Programme and Sculpture in the Gardens. Learn more about Friends programmes here.
