Branch Brook Park Alliance is a public/private partnership with Essex County and the Department of Parks Recreation and Cultural Affairs. We are the conservancy for Essex County Branch Brook Park, working in tandem with the county to care for this remarkable park. As the centerpiece of the first county park system in America, Branch Brook Park holds a special place in history.

Designed by the famous Olmsted Brothers and conceived by Frederick Law Olmsted Sr., it showcases a masterwork of landscape architecture. We have dedicated ourselves to restoring and refreshing the park, ensuring its historic design remains intact while making it more accessible and vibrant for today's visitors. With the support of our dedicated community of friends, we offer various opportunities for involvement, including volunteer programs, sponsorships, and donations.

Join us in preserving this natural oasis and contributing to the ongoing legacy of Branch Brook Park
