The Carl Faust Foundation, responsible for and owner of the Marimurtra Botanical Garden, presents an annual program of scientific outreach activities. A program created by Marimurtra’s technical teams with a dual approach: on the one hand, to offer an attractive and interesting proposal for audiences with different technical levels and botanical knowledge, and on the other, to cover different topics of interest related to the foundational purposes of the Carl Faust Foundation, which are essentially concern for the environment, science, botany, and gardening.
