Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park - Marsh Billings Rockefeller National Historical Park (U.S. National Park Service)

QUICKLINKS:

Green Pastures and Green Mountains

Walk through one of Vermont's most beautiful landscapes, under the shade of sugar maples and 400-year-old hemlocks, across covered bridges and alongside rambling stone walls. This is a landscape of loss, recovery, and conservation. This is a story of stewardship, of people taking care of places - sharing an enduring connection to land and a sense of hope for the future.
