Fireside will be held on September 26, 2026, and marks our 9th annual fundraising event for the Nature Center. It’s a fun evening featuring great food, drinks, and community, and it serves as our largest fundraiser of the year. The funds raised help us:

-Care for our 22 resident animal species
-Create engaging programs for adults, children, and families
-Bring climate change and sustainability curriculum to Darien schools
-Expand outreach to underserved communities
-Maintain our building and keep the Nature Center free and open to the public six days a week
