Help Others Enjoy this Wonderful Place.

Have you ever longed to seek solace in a serene, peaceful place? Maybe it is to learn how to pull together a nature journal, work in the gardens, paint a landscape, attend an Avant Garde music festival, take a moonlit hike, forest bath, learn about mushrooms, get a free tree at Arbor Day, or just enjoy a panoramic sunset? These are just a few examples of how people are experiencing Rhoneymeade as it fulfills its mission and enriches our community by fostering the connections between people, art, nature, and agriculture.

 

Rhoneymeade is an arboretum and sculpture garden set amidst a romantic old farmstead on a high valley ridge in Penns Valley, which is open to the public for many activities. The conservation easement on the organic hayfields offers long valley views and so many wonderful activities and opportunities for a wide range of people. Just imagine visiting an event and tasting pizza from our wood-fired oven, made with dough consisting of heritage wheat grown on the farm, while taking in the scenery! Once people visit they see why Rhoneymeade is a wonderful place!

 

We need your continued help so that you and others can enjoy this wonderful place. 

 

Centre Gives (https://centregives.org), the online event held on May 8th & 9th, is the perfect opportunity for you to donate to Rhoneymeade (https://centregives.org/organizations/128-rhoneymeade). Donations this year will help us buy tools for gardeners, materials to support public infrastructure, informational signage for the grounds, or specific items like an LED projector for educational talks or track lighting for art shows in the Studio. Any amount helps!

Community members, cross-country skiers, hikers, artists, students, photographers, nature lovers, historians, and so many more people, please consider supporting Rhoneymeade at Centre Gives on May 8th & 9th to help us share this wonderful place with our community!

 

Thank you.

THE CENTURY TREE ADOPTION PROJECT

Adopt a tree planted 100 years ago! Your contribution will aid in care for this tree by a professional arborist.

A plaque bearing the name of the tree, your name or someone you wish to memorialize will be inscribed on an indestructible bronze plaque at the base of the tree.

THE ALDO LEOPOLD BENCH PROJECT

Purchase a hand-carved bench made with locally sourced wood bearing your name or the name of someone you may wish to memorialize.

Aldo Leopold, a beloved environmentalist, liked simple but firm structure. The bench will be placed on Rhoneymeade property to be used by all visitors. The plaque is made of weather resistant material and will be secured to the back of the bench.

ADOPT A RHONE HOUSE ROOM PROJECT

Adopting a room in the Rhone house will contribute to appropriate historic restoration from floors to ceiling.

The name of the room along with your name will be inscribed on a beautiful bronze plaque placed outside of the room entrance.
