The arboretum is open to the public, and everyone is invited to enjoy this beautiful oasis. So come on out and experience the unique beauty, learn about the ecological importance of America's native flora and enjoy two miles of naturalistic hiking trails, live (enclosed) honeybees and our historic Wofford House Museum. The arboretum is dedicated to the preservation of the natural environment and the creation of formal and informal plant collections arranged in formal and informal gardens and a native plant area with nature trails.
We can all learn to become a source of inspiration and guidance for others who would like to help preserve our priceless natural resources. You are invited to become a member of the East Texas Arboretum to support the goal of educating the public and know you are making the world a better place through your support of environmental stewardship.
