Arboretum
  
The Arboretum is situated on fifteen acres of land directly across from Hayfield House. It contains approximately 60 varieties of some of the world's most unique trees and bushes, both deciduous and evergreen types. Visitors can still see the original nameplates that carry both common and scientific names on many of the trees. Among the specimens present are varieties of Japanese Yew that were relatively rare in the 1930's. Also, noticeable are European Larch, a needled tree that loses its needles each year, and several Gingkos which have interesting fan-shaped leaves.
