Betty Ford Alpine GardensBetty Ford Alpine Gardens
The mission of Betty Ford Alpine Gardens is to protect the alpine environment through education, conservation and living plant collections.
Whether you are here to gather information for an upcoming visit, want to take a deeper dive with our Science Elevated Speaker and Workshop Series, or you are looking for more information about the world above the trees, you’re in the right place.
While a stunning place to visit there is much more to this Garden. Each year a new education exhibit will surprise even the most knowledgeable visitor and you will learn about the scientific work being accomplished in the alpine to save the fragile species that call it home.
Winter has arrived at Betty Ford Alpine Gardens. The Gardens and Education Center are still open to explore and our winter programming schedule is underway.

The outdoor gardens are open daily from dawn to dusk. The Education Center is open daily from 10am-4pm.
