Planting Fields Foundation strives to preserve and make relevant to all audiences the heritage of Planting Fields, an early 20th century 409-acre estate, designed as an integrated composition of the built and natural world.
Designated on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979, Planting Fields is one of the largest extant residential projects ever realized by the Olmsted Firm. Returning to the original intent of the 409-acre site, originally created as an integrated composition of the built and natural world, Planting Fields Foundation aims to balance careful historic preservation with sustainable design strategies.
