About Arboretum San Antonio:
Arboretum San Antonio is a nonprofit 501c(3) organization founded in 2021 based on the vision of former Mayor Henry Cisneros for an inspiring “cathedral of trees” in San Antonio. We are located off of Southeast Military Road, just east of Brooks Development Authority on a 188 Acre former golf course. The land has a number of amenities that serve as a great starting point for a special place for trees. We have assembled both a highly engaged board of directors and an informed set of subject matter expert advisors that will guide us to the realization of a world class Arboretum for San Antonio.
