A beautiful space getting some well-deserved recognition! 🌿👏
The Bickelhaupt Arboretum has received a Property Improvement Program Award from the City of Clinton Neighborhood Improvement Committee!
This follows the recent transformation of the Bickelhaupt homestead into a place for education, events, and community connection—all while preserving the beauty that has made it such a special part of Clinton for decades.
Thank you to the City of Clinton Neighborhood Improvement Committee for this recognition, and to everyone who helped make these improvements possible. 💚
