The Environmental Centers of Setauket-Smithtown, Inc.’s Sweetbriar Nature Center, a private not-for-profit 501(c) education organization, is dedicated to providing natural science education and wildlife rehabilitation services to Long Island residents of all ages. Located on a beautiful 54-acre preserve in Smithtown, Sweetbriar offers a diverse range of programs to inspire and educate visitors, while working to rehabilitate and care for our local wildlife.
Since our founding in 1970, Sweetbriar has served over one million Long Islanders through a variety of programs, including school visits, on-site classes, scout programs, nature birthday parties, and internships in education, animal care, and botany. In addition to our programs, we proudly maintain a variety of wildlife habitats, organic gardens, animal collections, and an outdoor Butterfly Vivarium to engage and educate our visitors. We provide crucial wildlife rehabilitation services, taking in thousands of orphaned or injured animals each year, with the goal of releasing them back into the wild.
However, these programs require significant financial resources, and we depend on the generous support of our members, corporate sponsors, grants, and donations. This is where we hope you will consider partnering with us as a corporate sponsor to help us continue our vital work.
