In 1953, the Marquand family donated 17 acres of their estate, Guernsey Hall, to the municipality of Princeton to serve as an arboretum and passive recreation park. Once part of a 30-acre farm owned by Judge Richard Stockton Field, Marquand Park is home to more than 140 different tree specimens, some dating back more than 170 years!

Explore this incredible preserve with members of the Marquand Park Foundation, who will share the property’s history and highlight the native and exotic trees in the collection.

Free; advanced registration is required, as space is limited.
In the event of severe weather, the tour will be moved to Sunday, October 20.

PARKING INFORMATION:  Use the “lower” parking lot on Mercer Street, by the Seminary’s playing field on the corner of Hibben Road.
