The UMass Joseph Troll Turf Research Center is not normally open to the public. Occasionally, tours can be arranged for select groups but availability is dependent upon limited staff availability and current activities at the Center. The best way to visit and learn more is to attend our biennial UMass Turf Research Field Day, when we welcome turf practioners and associates to the Center for a morning of good education, good food and good company.
