Be a LOUA Volunteer

The Lower Olentangy Urban Arboretum (LOUA) was established in 2010 with a Columbus Foundation grant. The grant paid for native Ohio trees to be planted in South Clintonville tree lawns. Select trees are marked along two walks (maps here).

LOUA needs volunteers to maintain and upgrade our urban arboretum. Anyone is welcome.
