Dumbarton Oaks Park Conservancy

Dumbarton Oaks Park Conservancy is a nonprofit organization founded in 2010, dedicated to restoring the 27-acre Dumbarton Oaks Park, recognized as one of the United States' ten greatest garden landscape designs. This historic park, once part of the Dumbarton Oaks estate in Georgetown, Washington, DC, showcases the work of Beatrix Farrand, America's first professional female landscape architect. Through its partnership with the National Park Service, the Conservancy seeks to rejuvenate the park's natural beauty and enhance its relevance for contemporary audiences, while also providing educational opportunities for local children. The organization has received accolades for its community impact, being named one of the best community-based charities by the Catalogue for Philanthropy Greater Washington for 2020-2021.
