Charles Kelley King's trust created the public garden we know today “… having in mind the maintenance and up building of the higher intellectual and cultural development of the people and the advancement of science through the collection and culture of plants, trees and shrubs…” Kingwood Center is a tribute to a man who enjoyed sharing his estate, a practice he continues nearly six decades after his death. Kingwood Center is a private nonprofit, 501c3, educational institution. Funded by donations, fees, sales, membership, and the King Trust. No tax dollars are received. Taken from the Kingwood Center brocure. Also visit the official web site at www.kingwoodcenter.org or check out the official facebook page.
