This white oak cross section was cut from the Hopkins farm in Pittsford, NY.

The tree uprooted in 1990, at the time standing 107’ tall and 4 1/2’ in diameter at the trunk. The age according to the cross section is listed as 290 years.
To find the actual calculated age visit the conservatory and read up on the history that occurred during the life span of this once great tree.

Located in the front entryway of the conservatory so admission is only necessary if you want to continue on in and tour the newly restored building.

Come out to the newly restored Lamberton Conservatory in Highland Park.
