Hands-On Exploration and Observation
Greenwich Botanical Center is a gem located in the heart of the town of Greenwich. The property connects the Montgomery Pinetum, Pomerance and Tuckerman’s Parks creating approximately 120 acres of contiguous forest. The property offers a diversity of habits to explore: ponds, meadow, forest and wetlands.
We are proud to be Assured Experiences for Greenwich Public School district for both 3rd and 4th grades. We also have a special partnership with GPS’s International School at Dundee where we are their 1st grade’s IB partnership, interacting with their students multiple times throughout the school year both at our GBC location as well as in-school trips to ISD.
