Mansbridge agrees to be Fryfogel Arboretum’s patron

Peter Mansbridge is giving the Fryfogel Arboretum a boost.

The broadcaster and Stratford resident has agreed to become its patron.

The arboretum is dedicated to conserving trees, shrubs and plants of southwestern Ontario.

Work on the arboretum, which is about two kilometres east of Shakespeare on Highway 7/8, began in 2010.
