Ferncliff Cemetery & Arboretum remains a special place for people who appreciate trees or enjoy a quiet, casual stroll to soak in nature’s diversity; its sights and its smells. As Minnie Aumonier once wrote, “There is always music amongst the trees in the garden, but our hearts must be very quiet to hear it.” Throughout the years, many dedicated superintendents have focused on diversifying the cemetery’s growing species. Through diversification, a continual canopy covers Ferncliff’s grounds. Nursing a diverse population ensures the entire cemetery won’t suffer if problems occur to any of its tree species. Generously, Ferncliff officials encourage the public to walk its grounds and enjoy its educational role as a meticulously maintained arboretum. Each visit is sure to enhance one’s understanding of trees and their impact upon the environment.
