Welcome!
What is the Olds College Botanic Garden?
Not just a walk down the garden path, the Olds College Botanic Garden is
an important component in the educational programs of Olds College.
This living classroom enhances and reinforces training of students in horticultural programs ranging from journeyman to certificate, diploma, and applied Bachelors degree in such competencies as plant identification, landscape design and construction, and small business management.
It is a collection of specialty gardens, with each bed featuring its own personality and display of prairie hardy plants. The botanic garden conserves and maintains its collection, and actively encourages new plant introductions and applied research.
