The Arboretum at Fresno State, Botanical garden in Fresno, United States.

The Arboretum at California State University Fresno covers 25 acres across separate zones for Mediterranean plants, desert species, and rose collections. The site features over 100 labeled plant varieties that visitors can explore throughout their walk.

The site received official arboretum status in 1979, establishing a living plant collection for research and teaching purposes. This designation transformed a campus section into a botanical learning space.

The arboretum's plantings serve teaching and research for Fresno State, whose Jordan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology runs the university's agricultural programs. Students and staff use the labeled collections for study, and the campus vineyards and winery nearby produce student-made wines that have won over 300 awards since 1997.

Entry to the arboretum is free and visitors can wander through labeled plant species using an interactive mobile guide. The guide identifies over 100 varieties and makes self-guided exploration straightforward.
