Membership & Gifts
You are Essential.
Awbury is the largest remaining continuous tract of natural land in Germantown. Founded by a family of Quaker merchants, it became a public arboretum more than one hundred years ago. It’s a lot of precious responsibility to manage, and the importance of our core community of support can’t be overstated.
