There's no better way to appreciate a new city than through the eyes of a local. Our real estate agents love living and working in Baltimore and can't wait to share where to find the best Baltimore experiences. Read on to discover why we recommend a visit to Cylburn Arboretum when you're shopping for Baltimore homes for sale.
Cylburn Arboretum is the largest public garden in Baltimore City featuring 3-1/2 miles of nature trails and wetland areas and the Vollmer Visitor Center and historical Cylburn Mansion.
Nature and history intertwine in this expansive estate that includes more than 20 gardens and nature preserve. Cylburn Arboretum began in 1863 as the private home of Jesse Tyson, businessman and Baltimore Chrome Works Company president, to be used as a summer home to be shared with his mother. Construction was completed in 1888. Tyson married Edyth Jones, and the couple resided in the home together until Tyson's passing. Mrs. Tyson continued to live there until her passing in 1942 at which time Baltimore City purchased the property.
The estate became known as Cylburn Wildflower Preserve and Garden Center in 1954 featuring trails and gardens designed by volunteers. Its name was once again changed in 1984 to Cylburn Arboretum and covers 207 acres of land with horticultural and historic sites.
The arboretum is geared as a source of education, creativity, and discovery for every member of the family. You can discover all that nature has to offer as you spend the day exploring and learning at the Cylburn Arboretum.
Throughout the year, Cylburn Arboretum offers events and programs that appeal to the inquisitive mind and nature-lover in us all. Each month hosts a calendar of events that is chock-full of activities. From a variety of workshops to exciting tree tours along Mansion Drive, there are always new and exciting adventures.
Spend a day with the family learning about sustainable food production or create a scavenger hunt tailored just for you! Cylburn Arboretum also offers tons of fun for adults. From gardening workshops to yoga on the lawn, you're sure to find something you love with every visit.
The Cylburn Arboretum is a great place for sharing interests and learning new skills. The Volunteer Program is a great way to give back to the Cylburn community while sharing your love and passion for nature.
