Description
Tucson Audubon's Mason Center is a place
where youth, families, educators and others can appreciate the beauty of our native desert
and participate in a great variety of natural history learning experiences. Managed by the
Tucson Audubon Society, it is located on 20 acres of mostly undisturbed saguaro-ironwood
desert donated by its former owner, Mrs. Orpha Mason, in an area of Tucson’s
northwest side that is rapidly growing and in great need of outdoor education opportunities. As
a protected area adjacent to additional natural desert in Arthur Pack Park, it provides
habitat for the preservation and study of many desert plants and animals.
