Support our 2019 Yale Day of Service with an active morning of gardening to benefit The Woodlands. Afterward, you have some additional on-site options: 1) explore The Woodlands’ grounds in spring bloom surrounding the Hamilton Mansion, grave gardens, and gravesites of notables; or, 2) have a picnic if you bring your own food and the weather is inviting. To preview this unique historic site and the range of activities conducted there, click here.
