James Pass Arboretum

James Pass Arboretum is a treasured gem of Syracuse, especially to those who live in the Tipperary Hill neighborhood. In 1925, Mayor Walrath made an announcement of the land gifted by the Pass Family.

The City Of Syracuse recently celebrated its 100 year anniversary of the arboretum and big plans are ahead for this green space.

The plans are to transform this space into a beautiful sanctuary inspired by historical landscape features, become a credited arboretum, and create educational "classrooms" for community members to learn more about the featured plants, trees, and shrubs. 

Donate directly to James Pass Arboretum

To continue future projects and maintenance in the arboretum we are asking for help! Even with a small donation we're able to keep up with the care this park requires, especially after all the new updates. 

We appreciate you're help!
