We are the Friends of the Cruickshank Botanic Garden in Aberdeen
The most northerly university botanic garden in the UK.
We have been aiding the work of the Garden for over forty years
We are a vibrant community who love plants, horticulture, nature, and talking about it. We exist to support the Garden in different ways and sponsor people into a career in horticulture.
