Mission Statement

The mission of The Corporation for Jefferson's Poplar Forest is to preserve and restore Thomas Jefferson’s retreat so that it can serve the public as an innovative educational catalyst inspiring insight into the past, present, and future.

Description

Poplar Forest is Thomas Jefferson’s personal retreat. It is one of only two homes Thomas Jefferson designed and created for his own use. Designated a National Historic Landmark by the Secretary of the Interior, today it is an exciting opportunity to "be there at the beginning"-- to experience the award-winning rescue, archaeological exploration, and restoration of one of America’s most important national landmarks.

Poplar Forest is open for tours and special events seven days a week, March 15-December 15.
