About the Humber Arboretum
The Humber Arboretum offers 100 hectares of public gardens and urban greenspace connected to Humber Polytechnic North Campus. It operates as a tri-partnership between Humber Polytechnic, the City of Toronto Parks, Forestry, and Recreation Department, and the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority.
The grounds of the Humber Arboretum are free to visit and open to the public during daylight hours year-round. Numerous programs at Humber Polytechnic use the grounds to facilitate experiential learning opportunities, and the Arboretum's Centre for Urban Ecology offers events and programs for schools and the general public.
The Humber Arboretum's 2019-2024 Strategic Plan identified three priorities: World-Ready Citizens, Healthy Communities, and Thriving Nature.
