Review:
The Omaha Public Power District Arboretum (OPPD Arboretum) is an education and demonstration park where visitors and homeowners can learn about landscaping and planting trees and shrubs in relation to aboveground and buried power lines and electrical equipment. It also demonstrates the plantings vital to energy conservation.
Visitors can explore six areas of the park: Electrical safety education, substation functions, transmission line demonstration, wildlife and erosion-control planting, trees that can be planted near power lines, and a forested trail system. There are paved and woodchip trails throughout the park connecting the six educational areas. It offers a tranquil urban setting for a leisurely stroll.
