The Henry Schmieder Arboretum of Delaware Valley College Attraction Details
The Henry Schmieder Arboretum of Delaware Valley College
http://www.devalcol.edu/Arboretum
The concept of our campus-wide Arboretum dates back to the founding of Delaware Valley College as the National Farm School in 1896. The school's founder, Joseph Krauskopf, included an arboretum in the original plans for the school. However, it was not until 1966 that the Arboretum, under the stewardshipof Horticulturist David Benner, was recognized and named. At the time of his death, Henry Schmieder was cataloging the Arboretum collection and had plans for its expansion to make the campus a living resource for students, the community and the horticulture industry. His and Joseph Krauskopf's vision continues as the Arboretum and the College marked their 100th birthday in 1996.
