The Idaho Botanical Garden, one of the first and oldest botanical gardens in Idaho, is a lush 15-acre tapestry of dappled shade and vibrant splashes of color. Nestled in the Boise Foothills, it is a sanctuary in the heart of the Old Penitentiary Historic District. The Garden promotes horticulture in the Treasure Valley using native and domestic plants adapted to the intermountain region.

The Idaho Botanical Garden, which is designated as a living museum, is occasionally available for special events. Each special event is considered non-exclusive, which means the Garden is still open to the public; however, your special use area will be reserved for you and your guests.
