“Simply stated, the Arboretum adds to my quality of life. Since discovering a favorite route a year ago, I visit at least once a week. Thank you to every person who works with care to keep this unique park healthy, and accessible to all, but still with enough unpaved paths and trails that one can feel almost in the wilderness, minutes from its urban setting.”
