Miriam C. Schmidt Botanical Garden
This beautiful garden was named after Miriam C. Schmidt, born on St. Eustatius on January 8th, 1932. She was a self-less volunteer whose work, until her death in 1998, has left an indelible mark on the island. It can be seen in the existence of the St. Eustatius Historical Foundation of which she was a founding member, the Advent Youth organization, this garden and many other causes. Today, this lovely garden bears testimony to her interest in protecting her island’ s bio-diversity.
