UBC Botany Enthusiasts Club

Welcome to UBC Botany Enthusiasts Club! We are a diverse collection of plant lovers, dedicated to the exploration, education and celebration of our local flora and the world of plants. We aim to teach students gardening and botany skills through workshops and tutorials, to encourage students to be more sustainable, to collaborate with gardening and sustainability groups on campus, and to give UBC students— of all faculties, backgrounds and experiences— a space to share their appreciation for the botanical world. 

Events

We host various events throughout the year, usually once or twice per month. Examples of events we have hosted in the past are:

  • Creative events, such as terrarium making and plant hammering
  • Educational events, such as plant identification forest walks
  • Social events, such as plant trivia
  • Activism Events, such as MLA advocacy letter writing
  • Fundraisers, such as Valentine's flower sales

To find up-to-date information on upcoming events, follow us on Instagram, subscribe to our newsletter, or join our Discord, all linked below.
