Our Lasting Impact

The Friends of the Oak Park Conservatory asked our community to share why they support our organization. With the long history of The Friends and the longer history of the Conservatory, our members, volunteers, and donors shared their thoughts.

"I believe plants and flowers are an important part of everyone's life. That includes working with and learning about them as well as just seeing and enjoying them."
