2020 (D) Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller NHP (Vermont)

The Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park quarter is the fourth in 2020 and 54th overall in the America the Beautiful Quarters Program.

Nestled among the rolling hills and pastures of eastern-central Vermont, Marsh-Billings-Rockefeller National Historical Park is the only national park to tell the story of conservation history and the evolving nature of land stewardship in America. The boyhood home of George Perkins Marsh, and later the home of Frederick Billings, the property was given to the American people by its most recent owners, Laurance S. and Mary French Rockefeller.

Today, the park seeks to engage visitors in exploring the evolving concept of stewardship, defined broadly as the act of people taking care of the special places in their communities and beyond.
