Inspired by the work of Thierry Huau, landscape designer and ethnobotanist, garden and nature lovers developped an action in favor of gardens and botanical heritage, with the support of private patrons, institutions, and companies, by creating the Hortus Botanica sheltered foundation.
The aim of the Hortus Botanica Foundation is to support the preservation, restoration, creation, animation, development, and diffusion of natural/environmental heritage, and of the existing or future gardens related to it. Its action is carried out mainly in France and, possibly, abroad.
It participates in the cultural revitalization of living and historical heritage but also in its conservation, preservation, and social inclusion, to perpetuate extraordinary places.
