2010-2011 Horticulture Course Catalog

Founded in 1940 by Laura Leggett Barnes, The Arboretum School of the Barnes Foundation offers a comprehensive course of study in the botanical sciences, horticulture practices, garden aesthetics, and design. Students learn and practice in the twelve-acre Arboretum, a state-of-the-art greenhouse, and upon satisfactory completion of the three-year program receive a certificate of achievement.

The curriculum includes classroom lectures, self-directed learning, and hands-on experiences from which students develop into well-informed practitioners. Classes meet weekly over a 28-week period.
