Georgeson Botanical Garden is a Special Place

Georgeson Botanical Garden is a nationally recognized botanical garden known for its abundance of herbs, ornamental trees, vegetables and flowers that flourish within 100 miles of the Arctic Circle. The farthest-north botanical garden, Georgeson is well-known for its work with  peonies—which bloom in June and July—as well as its research, education and outreach about high-latitude horticulture. The garden is a popular summer destination for residents and tourists and hosts a wealth of special events. 

Nine of the garden's acres are cultivated. It sits on the eastern side of the Fairbanks Experiment Farm—a facility established in 1906 that is part of the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Agriculture and Forestry Experiment Station.
