The Toxic Plant Garden is a collection of plants that are toxic to various species of animals and has been a popular destination on the Veterinary Medicine campus since its inception in 1970. It has been used as a resource for the education of our veterinary and undergraduate students, a resource to educate our clients and the general public, and is usually a beautiful addition to our campus, enjoyed by many who visit. In recent years the garden has fallen into disrepair and is in dire need of revitalizing. Our goal for this project is to bring the garden back to life by partnering with the School of Veterinary Medicine Green Task Force, a student run group, and the Arboretum and Public Gardens to rehabilitate the garden through volunteer efforts, and the employment of an undergraduate employee.
