Morgan Arboretum
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Morgan Arboretum is a 245 hectare forested reserve, situated on the Mcgill University Macdonald Campus in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue on the western tip of the island of Montreal, in Quebec, Canada. The arboretum is a managed, mixed use area which is used for the purpose of conservation, academic study, recreation, and forestry management. It is supported by both McGill and the Morgan Arboretum Association, which had 1600 members as of 2006. Visitors are welcomed and are charged a nominal $5.00 admission fee. The arboretum is a demonstration site for managing forestry resources as well as mixed use land. One highly popular activity here is the production of maple syrup using traditional collection and production methods. The public is invited every spring to a traditional sugaring off.
