The Visitor and Education Center at Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens represents sustainable construction, as befits an organization dedicated to the protection, preservation and enhancement of our coastal botanical heritage. Green features include natural lighting and radiant heat. The shingle style construction features custom exterior trim, typical of a Maine summer cottage.

The facility supports the organization’s educational mission with class rooms, a library and a gallery, and also houses administrative offices, a café and gift shop.
