Dubuque Arboretum & Botanical Gardens at Marshall Park

We are the only arboretum and botanical garden in the USA staffed entirely by volunteers. Over 300 dedicated individuals maintain the trees, plants and shrubs, and seed-gifts which are all labeled throughout the garden. A special thank you to all of our guests and volunteers!

Formal English Garden expansion is complete. We are continuing work of the Japanese Garden. Come in through our new gate entrance. Don't be surprise if you see someone in wedding attire. We do over a hundred weddings each year.

Come visit us for a few moments or a few hours. Join us for our Sunday at Six-Thirty concert series all summer long. Donations accepted and new volunteers welcome.
