Bartlett Arboretum and Gardens

The Bartlett Arboretum extends across 91 acres of Connecticut landscape with champion trees, wetlands, gardens, meadows, and walking trails through native habitats.

Francis A. Bartlett established this land in 1913 as a research facility for his tree company, collecting specimens worldwide until the state acquired it in 1965.

The Silver Educational Center provides learning spaces where second-grade students participate in environmental programs throughout the academic year.

Visitors can explore the arboretum daily from dawn to dusk without admission fees, accessing facilities at 151 Brookdale Road in Stamford.

The herbarium maintains 3,500 specimens, including 2,500 vascular plant species from North America, Mexico, Caribbean, Peru, former Soviet Union, and Africa.
