2025-2030 Strategic Plan
Mount Pisgah Arboretum’s 2025-2030 Strategic Plan outlines a bold and inspiring vision to deepen community engagement, advance environmental stewardship, and enhance organizational capacity. Developed with input from community members, stakeholders, and staff, the plan builds upon decades of stewardship and education efforts while addressing modern challenges and opportunities. Below are the key components of the plan:
Strategic Goals
- Increase operational capacity and investments in staff
- Deepen engagement with diverse populations
- Strengthen our collaboration with regional environmental stewards
- Provide equitable access to programs and resources
- Increase funding and broaden the diversity of funding sources
- Develop facilities that enhance the visitor experience
- Enhance our stewardship of the natural environment
The Strategic Plan provides an actionable framework and collective vision to guide our development over the next five years while ensuring that the Arboretum remains a vibrant and accessible park for all. Using this Strategic Plan, the Arboretum will move ambitiously forward to reach these goals, remaining adaptable and collaborative to move this plan from a vision to reality. We look forward to doing this alongside supporters like you.
