Preserving Today. Enriching Tomorrow.

Published on September 15, 2017

To deepen our knowledge and understanding of plant life throughout the entire southeastern region, we have set aside 339 of the 1,145 acres of the property under our management as preserved conservation land. In addition, the 367 acre Mason Farm Biological Reserve is managed for the study and propagation of both rare and common plant species. What our botanical scientists and researchers learn here every day helps generate a greater public awareness of our native flora and the urgent need to preserve biodiversity, today and for generations to come.
