YardScapes donates $15,000 to Pratt Nature Center

NEW MILFORD, Conn. – YardScapes Landscape Professionals has donated all $15,000 in proceeds raised at its Quad-Am Golf Classic to Pratt Nature Center, a non-profit organization in New Milford, Connecticut.

“Our company philosophy states, ‘We believe that everyone, everywhere, benefits from a connection with nature’ and that mindset aligns perfectly with The Pratt Nature Center’s mission," said Shayne Newman, who founded YardScapes in 1990.

The Pratt Center is a 205-acre wildlife preserve and environmental education center in New Milford and was founded in 1967.

“We are always so happy to have YardScapes’ support and this donation will make a significant impact on Pratt’s wish list to expand on programs or fix-up a few things for all the children and families that come to experience this wonderful outdoor center," said Diane Swanson, executive director at Pratt.
