Description

Essex County Branch Brook Park has the largest and most varied collection of Japanese Flowering Cherry Blossom trees in a park within the United States, with 5,300 in 18 varieties.

Branch Brook Park Alliance provides ongoing stewardship to the renowned collection. Our team is comprised of a lean, but impactful staff of four, supported by thousands of dedicated volunteers, year-round. We encourage everyone who enjoys the experience of the season to join us in contributing. Interested in helping us grow our cherry blossom collection? Please check out our Adopt-A-Tree program here.
