WISH LIST
As we look into the next decade at Boxerwood, we realize there are many improvements to be made—all designed to keep the magic of the nature center alive and make sure that we are accessible and inclusive for people of all ages and income levels.
We would happily accept donations of tools, equipment, volunteer hours or a generous donation for these vital aspects of helping Boxerwood and the planet to thrive. Here are a few items on our wish list:
THE LODGE FACELIFT
It is 65 years old and those years are showing. We need a new roof, a new floor, and we’re nursing the furnace along with little more than tender loving care.
DONATE
GARDEN EQUIPMENT
A wood chipper and a new tractor would be make life so much easier for our garden staff and volunteers.

DEVELOPING ACCESSIBILITY
We are committed to improving accessibility at Boxerwood with better parking options, outdoor restroom facilities, and a trail that accommodates folks with mobility challenges.

FUNDS
Boxerwood is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. More than half of our funds are based on memberships and donations from kind, hardworking folks who recognize a community treasure when they see one. There are many ways to support Boxerwood, and no gift, no effort is too small or too great.
nest scholarship
The NEST Mission is to raise a generation of young citizens who have the knowledge, skills, and
motivation to care for the earth —
our home. Supporting them, means supporting our children.

Your generous gift to Boxerwood is an investment that guarantees our roots are deep and strong for many years to come.
