Getting to know ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ’s Morgan Arboretum
Published: 25 September 2019
On Sept. 14, ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ’s Morgan Arboretum forest reserve held its annual open house, giving students an opportunity to experience a unique part of the Macdonald campus. With activities including the monarch butterfly launch and a birds of prey flight show, visitors had the opportunity to learn more about the local flora and fauna found at the Arboretum.
Before being donated to ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ in 1945, the land that the Arboretum occupies today was owned by a famous Montreal family, the Morgans, known for their Quebec department store chain. Today, the Arboretum is maintained and run primarily by operations manager Scott Pemberton.Ìý
