Eden Project

We’re thrilled to announce two new and exclusive Premium Experiences designed for those who want a deeper, hands-on connection with the natural world and a look behind the scenes of our world-renowned Biomes. 🌱 Immersive Horticulture Experience - Step into the role of an Eden gardener for a day, working alongside our expert horticulturists in the Mediterranean Biome, learning specialised techniques in plant propagation, biocontrol, and garden design. 🌍 Ultimate Eden Experience - This is our most comprehensive tour available and offers a rare opportunity to explore areas usually closed to the public. This journey includes guided tours of both the Rainforest and Mediterranean Biomes, a visit to our sustainable, geothermally-heated nursery, and a private electric vehicle tour of our Outer Estate. “These Immersive Experiences allow visitors to delve deeply into Eden’s horticultural and ecological expertise,” says Emma Smart, Eden Project’s Explainer & Tale Maker Manager. “With Christmas around the corner, they also make for an unforgettable gift.” Ready to explore?

We're delighted to share that Eden Project Dundee has been Highly Commended in the Future Projects - Civic category at the World Architecture Festival in Singapore.     The festival is the largest global live awards event for architects and designers and we are proud that the transformative and regenerative design of Eden Project Dundee has been recognised at the event.

Thanks to a wet, overcast summer and the hard work of our horticulturalists, we’ve the biggest display of chillies to date in our Mediterranean Biome. 🌶️ The display has over 300 plants made up of 34 different cultivars and represent all five of the major species of cultivated chillies. Their heat ranges from 0 up to a staggering 2.2 million on the Scoville heat scale – a worldwide system which measures the spiciness of chilli peppers (and other substances). Their scores are based on the levels of capsaicinoids identified - aka the chemicals responsible for the spicy taste and burning sensation when consumed. 🌡️ The hottest chilli we’re growing, achieving 2.2 million on the scale, is the Carolina Reaper, which you can see in the first photo. It’s 400 times hotter than a Jalapeno chilli pepper and stronger than some law enforcement-grade pepper sprays! Would you take on the Carolina Reaper?

Sleep Out for homelessness awareness. 🌙🌚 On 14 November, spend a night outside the Biomes to support those facing homelessness in the South West.
