Make a Difference! Consider Contributing to our "Bus Fund"

We've created a "Bus Fund" for targeted donations that will extend our impact and bring more children for day-long educational field trips. A donation of any size is welcome as it gets us closer to being able to welcome one more group for these vital programs. One of our partner teacher describes the program this way: "The Wakefield Estate field trips were one of the most valuable experiences of the school year for me and my students. This place was where science came alive for them! From the moment they stepped off the bus for each field trip they were filled with wonderings about the natural world. These kinds of learning experiences stay with students, not for a year or a month, but for their whole lives."- Holly Rosa, Russell Elementary School, Dorchester

Thank you for your consideration. Your support brings important lessons and countless smiles to hundreds of Boston children - and we are extremely grateful.

Contribute to the Llama Fund, in memory of Jack the Llama

We were heartbroken to share the sad news of the passing of our beloved Jack the llama. He died as he lived his years here at the estate: surrounded by his flock of adoring sheep. He will be missed by many. Hundreds of visiting students were delighted to feed him out of their little hands and often said it was their favorite moment of the their day-long field trip. We hope you had a chance to meet him. He'll be in our hearts forever. To view some of our favorite photos of the sweet and wonderful beast, click here.
