Quote
Cornwall was never the destination – it was the proof. Every Eden, anywhere, is the same idea: people, plants, place, in service of the planet.
Our projects
People and communities
Our vision is of a thriving planet where people care for nature, each other, and their communities.
Our flagship campaign The Big Lunch and communities programme encourages connection and helps people build the skills, tools and confidence to start or grow local projects.
Our Nature Connections programme uses nature-based activities to boost health, wellbeing and learning.
Through our schools programme, we equip young people with the skills, agency and optimism to shape a future where both people and planet can thrive.
Our projects
New sites
Eden Project Cornwall is a symbol of hope for a future that remains ours to make, showcasing human ingenuity and nature recovery, and acting as a catalyst for economic regeneration.
We're building on these foundations with new Eden Projects in Morecambe and Dundee.
These new public education centres are demonstrators of regenerative sustainability, illustrating new ways of thinking in their construction and operation, and will create a positive environmental and socioeconomic impact.

Our projects
Nature and conservation
Our botanic collection features over 6,000 species of plant from all around the world – plants that feed us, clothe us, house us, keep us healthy, and regulate the climate. We tell the story of these plants to help people understand their place in the world.
But our influence extends far beyond the biomes in Cornwall - we work to protect and conserve nature all across the world, and in doing so, help people to connect with the places they live.
From restoring native UK wildflowers to restoring a biological corridor in Costa Rica, read about our projects in nature and conservation.
