It's #WomensHistoryMonth, and today we honor Western New Yorker Belva Lockwood. A towering figure in women's history, Lockwood overcame many social and personal obstacles related to gender restrictions. She was a dynamic and fearless advocate for women's rights, the first woman to practice law before the US Supreme Court, and in 1884 ran for president—the first woman (arguably) to do so—on the National Equal Rights Party line.

From reflecting ponds to towering trees, since 1849 this historic 269-acre landscape is not just a place of rest—it's a place of stories, strength, and resilience. Throughout the month, VBN celebrates the remarkable women who shaped Buffalo and beyond. Whether through guided tours or quiet walks, there's no better time to reflect on their lasting impact.
