Help Put Plantcestry on the Map

The Nature Center at Shaker Lakes is proud to be Plantcestry’s Fiscal Sponsor. We look forward to the site’s development and partnering in the future.

About Plantcestry:

With a vision of a world where every plant - and every person - can thrive, rooted in shared care, inclusiveness, and a deeply connected community, Plantcestry’s mission is to cultivate connection and compassion by sharing plants and mapping their growth - nurturing both people and plants through community, care, and opportunity.

You can help put Plantcestry on the map. Literally.

Some plants are grown for someone— gifted to those we know, shared with those we don’t, and nurtured in honor of people and moments that matter.

Plantcestry is building a living map of these connections and dedications—tracing how plants connect us to the people who matter most, and to people we have never met. Each plant becomes more than something we care for. It becomes a way to honor, remember, and stay connected.

Your donation will help us:

Build an interactive map that reveals these living connections

Create meaningful ways to dedicate plants to people, pets, and moments

Grow a network rooted in care, generosity, and remembrance

Keep this experience open and accessible to all

With your support, we can make these connections visible—turning simple acts of giving into something lasting and shared.

Please help us put Plantcestry on the map by donating any amount today.
