The focus of the Utah State University Botanical Center is education and research on conservation and wise use of plant, water, and energy resources. The H.

There’s also an urban fishery, walking and biking trails, wetland areas that support birds and other wildlife, a volunteer-tended garden that provides thousands of pounds of fresh produce to local food banks, a seasonal farmers market and a full schedule of classes, workshops, educational field trips and other events.
