Visiting the Greenhouses:With one of the most diverse plant collections in the northeastern United States, the Ecology & Evolutionary Biology Greenhouses are an exciting destination in eastern Connecticut.We welcome drop-in visitors to come have a look around to see what's new and also offer guided tours for school age children and special groups. If you are interested in making a day of it and would like to know what other reasons there are to come to UConn there are many - sporting activities, museums, the dairy bar just to name a few.
| Planning your VisitOn Your Own:We are located on the main campus of the University of Connecticut at Storrs, CT. (directions) Our facility is located behind the Torrey Life Sciences building and is open to the public Monday thru Friday from 8 AM until 4 PM. We are closed weekends and most state holidays. Our staff is generally on-hand to answer any questions you may have or help you find a plant you wish to see. We do periodically close down some rooms for routine pest control spraying. If you would like to verify that a particular part of the collection will be open, please do not hesitate to call prior to your visit. (860-486-4052)
