Historic Sites in Vermont
Marsh - Billings - Rockefeller National Historical Park
Located in Woodstock, Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park is the only national park to focus on conservation history and the evolving nature of land stewardship in America. Opened in June 1998, Vermont's first national park preserves and interprets the historic Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller property. The Park is named for George Perkins Marsh, one of the nation's first global environmental thinkers, who grew up on the property, and for Frederick Billings, an early conservationist who established a progressive dairy farm and professionally managed forest on the former Marsh farm. Today, the Park interprets the history of conservation with tours of the mansion and the surrounding 550-acre forest.
