The Van der Brohe Arboretum (VDBA) is engaged in the conservation of a former 65-acre golf course into an ecological center focused on providing an environment for the cultivation and display of the variety of tree types and species which will be suitable for the location in Two Rivers, Wisconsin. The trees are displayed in meadows, and migratory bird food plots, providing a trich diversity of value to avian communities.  The grounds provide an expository narrative of the value of trees to the earth, the climate, the biota of the region, and of course, to human interests.  The arboretum lends itself to secondary uses such as an art park, passive recreation, birding, mediation, and relaxation.
