Excuse Our Dust!!!

In the next few days, we will begin construction on a dramatic new entrance to the Arboretum—which will be in the same location as our current one. This construction activity is estimated to take approximately 8 weeks through completion. The design and construction of this new entrance will dramatically improve the appearance of the main entry walkway and adjacent landscaping. Bear with us through this process--you may be slightly inconvenienced during the construction, but the end result will be a spectacular improvement to our main entrance. We do not anticipate any changes in our regular hours, classes or events during this renovation and limited parking will still be available in the main Arboretum parking lot.

A temporary main entrance will be used during construction and it is located to the right of the existing entrance (as you face it)--past the large tree and adjacent to the bike path--about 75 yards. It will be marked so you can find it easily. This new main entrance will be open to the general public at all times during normal visiting hours.
