Kadoorie Farm and Botanic Garden (KFBG) is situated in the rural New Territories, on the northern slopes of Tai Mo Shan, Hong Kong’s highest mountain. Two steep spurs enclose its deep-set valley. Within KFBG are streams, woodlands, orchards, vegetable gardens, walking trails, live animal exhibits, floral exhibits, sustainable agriculture demonstration plots, art exhibits, a wild animal rescue centre, a native tree nursery, and, other conservation and education facilities.
On 20th January, 1995, the Legislative Council of Hong Kong passed an Ordinance (KFBG Chapter 1156) incorporating KFBG as a non-profit corporation designated as a conservation and education centre with a new mission. It is a unique public-private partnership, for while the KFBG Corporation is a public organisation, it is privately funded by the Kadoorie Foundation (over HKD 100 million per year); these funds are supplemented by small donations from the public and occasional project-related Government grants that enable us to extend our work.
KFBG’s three core programmes - Nature Conservation, Holistic Education and Sustainable Living - are constantly evolving as they strive to harmonize humanity’s relationship with nature. In addition to the many on-site courses, workshops and special events that we run for the education and revitalization of visitors, we implement projects throughout Hong Kong, South China and other parts of the Indo-Burma region to better protect and restore biodiversity.
