Mission Statement

The friends of Palomar Arboretum, in support of living with nature, have come together to promote and protect the Arboretum. We believe that arboretums and gardens enrich our surroundings and enhance our sensitivity to nature.

We believe it is important for us and future generations to sustain this connectedness to nature. We belong to nature and what we do to nature we do to ourselves. In this light, it then becomes our mission to preserve Palomar Arboretum as an important part of our community.
