The mission of Bernheim Arboretum & Research Forest is simple: connecting people with nature. With 16,140 acres of pristine Kentucky woodlands in Bullitt and Nelson Counties, there is an adventure waiting for everyone. Purchased by German immigrant Isaac W. Bernheim in 1929, the land was dedicated as a gift to the people of his new homeland. Today, more than 300,000 visitors from the U.S. and abroad visit Bernheim each year. Your support of this auction will fuel Bernheim's mission of connecting people with nature through educational programming, arts, special events, nature play, and so much more. Special thanks to Buffalo Trace Distillery for supporting this mission!
