The UCF Arboretum is an outdoor laboratory that supports and encourages relevant, experience-based learning, urban ecology research, and fosters human connections with ecosystems and landscapes. The Arboretum contributes to student development and engagement through volunteer, service-learning and educational opportunities. It is one of the many ways in which UCF engages with the community – providing partnership and outreach initiatives that increase awareness and understanding of key issues in ecology, natural resource conservation, and urban horticulture.
