Trees, Shrubs and Birds

The mission of Boone County Arboretum is “to create a living museum that enriches the quality of life by providing a place for the appreciation and study of plants and the preservation of the natural environment.” There are currently over 3600 trees and shrubs in the collection on over 121 acres, a variety of annual and perennial flower displays, all connected by a paved 2.2 mile multi-use trail. A 3 acre native Kentucky grassland surrounds a bird blind, which overlooks a small wetland area.

May is a beautiful time to see the many flowering trees and shrubs in addition to many bird migrants.

We will meet at the Abroretum at 9AM.
