We rely on the support of people who appreciate the Garden and want to give something back. One of the best ways to help us and forge a relationship with RBGE is to become a Member or Patron.
Many of the Garden's important scientific, conservation and research projects would not have been so successful without help from the Members and Patrons.
As well as enjoying the benefits of membership, you will be helping us to fulfil our mission - to ‘explore and explain the world of plants' - and protect vulnerable species for generations to come.
Choose from one of three levels of membership and become a Friend, Companion or Patron. See the membership benefits to help decide the level of support which best suits you.
Why not give a gift of membership?
Give an experience to be enjoyed and treasured all year round. A Friend, Companion, Patron or Life membership makes an ideal birthday, wedding, retirement or anniversary gift. Gift packs can be sent to you or direct to the recipient allowing them to enjoy their gift throughout the year.
For more information on giving a membership gift or to purchase one please call us on 0131 552 5339 or email members@rbge.org.uk.
