Meet our Collaborators
Through our educational programs, partnerships, and stewardship practices, as a team, we aim to increase awareness in the vital role nature plays in our daily lives, especially here in San Bernardino County. We share our passion for our fragile environments and want to make a difference for the community, our students and their families. Our collaborators bring the expertise of their disciplines and help us facilitate inclusive and innovative teaching and learning while also applying the SBVC Botanical Gardens as a resource.
