Activities & Mission
The Eden Trust aims to promote public education and research in flora, fauna & other aspects of the natural world, rebuilding connections of understanding that have faded from many people's lives. The Eden Project site tells stories that illustrate our dependence on plants and resources to develop the resilience of individuals, communities and societies to face the challenges of the 21st Century.
