GEM Program

Give Every Month (GEM) Program

Thank you being an important part of our Vallarta Botanical Garden’s family! Together we have built an award-winning, world-class garden. Together as a family, we have created purposeful beauty, and we should be proud of that. The Botanical Garden is launching a monthly pledge program, our Give Every Month (GEM) Club. The objective of the GEM program is to generate an automatic flow of income to cover our basic operating expenses, freeing us to launch the Garden to a new level.

After only 10 years of development, we have surpassed all expectations with the scope and beauty of our botanical displays, but we can do so much more together. Let’s make this place one of the top botanical garden destinations in the world.

Pledge an amount you’re comfortable with and become a GEM of the Garden. Thank you for your ongoing and generous support.
