Established on the 171-acre Tower Hill property since the society purchased it in 1986, the garden offers a year-round botanical setting cared for by professional horticulturists with support from staff and volunteers. Its mission centers on inspiring the use and appreciation of horticulture to enhance lives, enrich communities, and strengthen ties to the natural world. The Garden serves visitors seeking a cultivated landscape and educational experiences, while also supporting urban beautification efforts in collaboration with local organizations. In recent developments, the Garden has been recognized as the Best Botanical Garden in the United States and has formed partnerships with the City of Worcester on urban forestry and tree care initiatives. The organization positions itself within the museums, historic sites, and zoos sector, contributing a regional horticultural destination that blends public programming with conservation-minded stewardship.
