Connecticut College Arboretum

"The Connecticut College Arboretum provides a welcome connection with the natural world, offering opportunities for teaching, research, conservation, recreation and public education. Including the campus itself, the Arboretum encompasses approximately 750 acres of preserved open space in southeastern Connecticut. Once a farm surrounded by woodlands, the Arboretum offers visitors a chance to explore a diverse collection of natives and botanicals, to watch a show at the outdoor Flock Theater, or to just simply wander and enjoy the beauty of this precious natural resource."
