The Friends of JPPM

Supporting the Park and Appreciating the Gift

Jefferson Patterson Park and Museum was gifted to the State of Maryland by the Patterson Family in 1983. This beautiful 560-acre park is along the Patuxent River and has so much to offer, from walking paths to history; there is something here for everyone. 


The Friends came along shortly afterward and have been working to support the park.  Ever since we do what we can to help; from grants to volunteering to fundraising, being a friend means loving the park and letting it show!
