Overview

Mission

Restoration, education, and research of Saddler's Woods.

What it reported doing in 2024

Restoration - Over 3,150 volunteer hours in habitat restoration work. Continued Operation Goat Munch in upland zone for spring and fall seasons. Initiated winter English Ivy and wisteria vine cutting off of trees. Native pollinator garden in welcome area expanded. 1000 Linear feet of trail restored to combat erosion. Continued propagation project of the American Chestnut and American Elm in cooperation with local shade tree commissions.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Revenue has declined or grown slowly and expenses are high relative to revenue.
