Farrington Nature Linc is a non-profit organization based in Lincoln, Massachusetts, operating a 75-acre site of woodlands, fields, and ponds near Boston. Its mission centers on improving the well-being of children from low-income communities by providing direct experiences with the natural world through field trips, afterschool programs, and a teen leadership initiative. The organization serves urban and nearby communities by offering day visits for groups from Boston and Cambridge, along with weekly nature-focused afterschool programming aligned with local schools. Through its Teen Leadership program, Farrington Nature Linc provides opportunities for teens from the covered communities to participate in running summer field trips and to assume leadership roles during the school year. The overall aim is to foster curiosity, creativity, resilience, and a sense of personal empowerment among participating youth, helping them view themselves as capable and engaged with nature. A recent development noted is the appointment of a new Program Director in late 2017. Farrington Nature Linc operates within the non-profit sector focused on environmental education and youth development.
