Why Does a Arboretum Need Insurance?

Arboretums welcome the public onto living collections. Between trails, events, volunteers, vehicles, and valuable trees, one injury, storm loss, or equipment issue can disrupt operations and funding. Insurance helps keep doors open when the unexpected hits.

What Does Arboretum Insurance Cover?

Coverage can protect against visitor injuries, damage to buildings and equipment, loss of income after a shutdown, auto accidents, and claims tied to programs, staff, or volunteers. It can also address higher risks like wildfire and wind.

Visitor injury on a trail

A guest slips on wet mulch near a display garden and needs medical care. General liability can help cover legal defence and settlement costs if the arboretum is blamed for unsafe conditions.

Storm damages rare specimens and structures

High winds drop limbs onto a greenhouse and irrigation controls. Property coverage can help pay to repair buildings and replace damaged equipment, and may extend to certain outdoor property depending on the policy.

Event-related loss and cancellation

A ticketed evening fundraiser is shut down due to a power outage and resulting safety concerns. Business income and event-related coverage options can help with lost revenue and extra expenses to reschedule.

Arboretum Insurance Made Simple

Everything you need to know about protecting your business, from coverage basics to real-world scenarios.

Is arboretum insurance different from standard commercial insurance?

The building blocks are similar, but the risk profile is not. Arboretums combine public access with outdoor hazards, valuable plant collections, education programs, and frequent events. A strong plan usually accounts for trails and signage, falling limb risk, wildfire and wind exposure, greenhouse operations, and the way volunteers are used. The goal is a policy that matches how your grounds actually operate, not a generic office package.
