Mission & Objectives
The Arboretum Mission is to provide opportunities for education and recreation for members of the campus and local communities. This is achieved through five objectives:
- To preserve and care for the existing trees and landscape on campus.
- To promote a resilient and diverse campus tree collection.
- To educate visitors about climate-appropriate and drought tolerant tree species, indigenous trees, general tree care and maintenance, and the benefits provided by trees.
- To provide outdoor education and research opportunities for members of the CSUSM community.
- To foster community involvement with organizations or individuals outside of the CSUSM campus through events, donations, volunteer opportunities, or other activities.
Future Plans
The arboretum plan has been prepared to further the FDM Department’s goals of maintaining and enhancing the quality learning environment of CSUSM through sustainable development and growth.
Maintenance and Care
The campus is open to the public and provides green space and recreational opportunities to the surrounding community.
Maintenance and care of the CSUSM Arboretum is under the umbrella of the Facilities Development & Management Department (FDM) who is responsible for planning, design, construction, and maintenance of all campus facilities and grounds.
The CSUSM Arboretum encompasses the developed areas of campus, currently totaling approximately 150 acres.
