A donation of $35 or more makes you a member of Hoyt Arboretum Friends. Become a member or renew your membership here.
Unlike most museums, our living museum of trees does not charge an admission fee. As such, Hoyt Arboretum Friends relies on donations from individuals like you to support the Arboretum. It is the generosity of our members that keeps Hoyt Arboretum growing and thriving—as an outdoor classroom, a living laboratory for research, and a global garden dedicated to species conservation.
