| As a free urban park and naturalized landscape in the heart of Boston, the Arnold Arboretum plays an important role in supporting health and wellness in our community. Connecting Boston’s neighborhoods to trees and wildlife, our landscape offers an exceptional environment for enhancing our relationship with plants and tapping into the physical and mental benefits of immersion in nature. For individuals and families of people challenged by memory loss, a guided walk through the Arboretum landscape can be an enriching experience and sensory feast for all. On Saturday, June 8 at 10:00 a.m., Arboretum Director William (Ned) Friedman will lead a free guided tour developed to engage individuals with dementia and their caregivers. Register for this special opportunity to meet some marvels of the botanical world, enjoy seasonal highlights, and take in the wonderful sights and scents of late spring at the Arnold Arboretum. |
