Nestled on the University of Alaska Fairbanks campus, the Georgeson Botanical Garden stands as one of the northernmost gardens in the world. This unique garden showcases a diverse collection of flowers, vegetables, herbs, and native Alaskan plants. During the summer, when Fairbanks basks in over 21 hours of sunlight, the garden serves as an experimental plot, testing the limits of what can thrive in the extreme subarctic conditions. Visitors can explore the vibrant displays and learn about the innovative horticultural techniques used to cultivate these resilient plants.
