O.W.L.S. - The Brenton Arboretum: Past, Present, and Future
Melissa Burdick, Executive Director
Nestled in the heart of Dallas County farmland, The Brenton Arboretum is one of Iowa's premier botanical collections. Join us for an exploration of The Brenton Arboretum from pioneer to farming days, to a seed of an idea in founder Buz Brenton's imagination, to the stunning cultural attraction it is today. Plus, enjoy a sneak peek at the exciting projects in store for the future of the Arboretum with a glimpse at the newly updated master plan.
(Older, Wiser, Livelier, Souls) programs are held each month at the Story County Conservation Center (56461 180th Street, Ames.) These are designed for "boomers" or older - but anyone can attend. There will not be lunch after the program. Coffee and tea will be available.
Our top priority has been and will
continue to be the health and well-being of the public and the staff. In
response to the ongoing development of COVID-19, Story County Conservation
programs will adhere to social distancing, smaller group size, increased sanitation
and face coverings mandatory when social distancing is not possible or while
indoors. Pre-registration
will be required when group size needs to be limited due to the facility or
location.
