Mt. Cuba Center

Mt. Cuba Center exists thanks to Pamela and Lammot du Pont Copeland’s visionary approach to conservation. The quote below is our founding intention. “I want this to be a place where people will learn to appreciate our native plants and to see how these plants can enrich their lives so that they, in turn, will become conservators of our natural habitats.” -Pamela Copeland Beyond the beauty of Mt. Cuba runs a deep river of purpose. We understand the importance of native plants and open space preservation and impart this understanding with everyone who walks through our gates.

Mt. Cuba Center inspires an appreciation for the beauty and value of native plants and a commitment to protect the habitats that sustain them.
