20th Anniversary Circle

This year celebrates 20 years of growing something extraordinary at Wellfield Botanic Gardens from the curated gardens to the new Visitors Center and Woodland Pavilion. Over the past two decades, we have been building these beautiful gardens and event spaces for the community to enjoy. The original master plan that guided Wellfield's vision is nearly complete, an impressive feat to accomplish over this time. Now, as we mark this milestone, we face an exciting challenge. What's next? 

​

To celebrate our 20th anniversary, we are embarking on our first comprehensive strategic plan that will define how Wellfield advances our mission to cultivate art, education, and ecology to nurture a more vibrant and sustainable world. It is my honor to move forward with our mission by leading this strong team into our next chapter. Although I only joined the team in the summer of 2025, I immediately felt a strong sense of community that our supporters share. Wellfield Botanic Gardens is truly a community project done right.
 

We developed a circle of supporters who will provide early leadership and financial assistance to support us to complete this plan. This Circle, our 20th Anniversary Circle, helps us recognize this important milestone in our history and will help us complete our plan in 2026. Please check back later in 2026 when we will have our plan completed. In the meantime, if you have questions about, or would like to join, our Anniversary Circle, then please reach out to me. The investment will make a direct impact on Wellfield's future as we shape our next chapter together. 
 

Thank you for the past twenty years, and here's to twenty more!
