Mission: Enriching lives through nature by providing education, enjoyment, and inspiration.
The Dubuque Arboretum and Botanical Gardens were established in 1980. The grounds are open year-round from 7 a.m. to dusk, welcoming around 55,000 visitors from all over the world each year. The Arboretum was created and is maintained entirely by volunteers and three staff members. Currently, we have around 300 volunteers who help in our gift shop, office, gardens, maintenance, planning, and operations. The Arboretum is a popular spot in the community for outdoor weddings, concerts, and special events. The Dubuque Arboretum holds many educational events, and partners with many non-profits and organizations in the local community. Our opportunities are growing with the upcoming addition of the children's garden, this will become a wonderful asset to the community and to all of our guests. The Dubuque Arboretum's beauty and growth are something we all can cherish - thanks to the valuable hours from our volunteers and generous grants and donations that have been provided.

"This is my third trip to this garden. In summary, it is spectacular. While I would have expected to pay $5 to $10 per person, it is free. That makes it even more surprising." - Trip Advisor Review
