Did you know Tree Pittsburgh's own campus is an official arboretum? 🌳

BUT, what exactly is an arboretum? An arboretum is a living museum of trees and woody plants, grown and cared for by an organization committed to their stewardship. To qualify as an arboretum, you need at least 25 species labeled for education, public access, and regular community programming. It's not just a pretty park, it's basically a tree library! And who doesn't love a library!?

Our 5-acre campus along the Allegheny River in Lawrenceville is one of several arboretums right here in the city, alongside spots like Mellon Park, Westinghouse Park, and Allegheny Cemetery. Pittsburgh's got some serious tree cred!

If you're interested in exploring and learning about trees, visiting an arboretum can be a good start to your education journey! 🍃
