Friends of Secrest Arboretum (FSA) has been organized to play a vital role in funding, volunteering, and helping with the further development of Secrest, an arboretum of national and international stature. Whether you live in Ohio or elsewhere, you can be a Friend of Secrest Arboretum.

By providing research-based information to enhance the environment, Secrest helps scientists, educators, students, producers, landscape architects, and consumers. As Secrest continues to discover and develop solutions to landscape problems, it is critical to update our collections. Secrest is already home to thousands of native and introduced species and cultivars of trees, shrubs, and other plants, and with the help of the Friends of Secrest Arboretum, we will help establish new and improved programs for research, education, and natural beauty and continue to be a unique resource in Ohio.

Each year, thousands of people enjoy and learn from Secrest Arboretum. Such partners have been recognized as important assets throughout our history. As a member of Friends of Secrest Arboretum, you will be a partner for the future.

Call or write for more information: (330) 263-3761 or cochran.7@osu.edu. We look forward to hearing from you.
