Arboretum tours will be offered throughout the day. The sculpture and the extended trail have been a community effort involving, in addition to the entities listed above, the arboretum, Nebraska State Historical Society Foundation, Brownville Town Board and Brownville Fine Arts Association, along with many state and regional units, including the Southeast Nebraska Development District and Nemaha County Commissioners. The Governor Furnas Arboretum became an affiliate site of the Nebraska Statewide Arboretum in 1996. The NSA is a horticultural organization headquartered at the University of Nebraska's Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources. Brownville is about 30 miles south of Nebraska City on Highway 136, along the Missouri River.
Visitors can follow signs to the arboretum.
