Farrington Nature Linc is honored to have James Edward Mills join us for a special presentation entitled 'Over The Adventure Gap ~ the Path of Progress Toward Lasting Social Change.' This event will include a celebration of our staff and students, as well an online auction to support our ongoing work.

James Edward Mills is a freelance journalist who specializes in telling stories about outdoor recreation and environmental conservation.

He has worked in the outdoor industry since 1989 as a guide, outfitter, independent sales representative, writer, and photographer.

He is the author of the book “The Adventure Gap: Changing the Face of the Outdoors” and the co-writer/co-producer of the documentary film An American Ascent.

In 2020 The Adventure Gap was named by Outside Magazine as one of the 10 “Outdoor Books that Shaped the Last Decade.”

His story and experiences align deeply with Farrington Nature Linc's mission to connect youth - primarily youth of color - with the outdoors in a time when, even pre- COVID 19, being black or brown in nature is not always safe or easy.

While we have always believed that nature is necessary to health and well-being, Covid-19 has made the disparity in access to green spaces more clear than ever.

These past six months have further driven our commitment to providing the communities we serve with the opportunity to explore and connect with the outdoors.

Farrington's programs have connected children and families with nature, on our property in Lincoln, and in green spaces near their homes and schools for more than 20 years.

We rely on the support of our donor community run run amazing outdoor programs for youth in the Greater Boston area.

Please consider adding a donation to Farrington in your ticket order to support our ongoing programming and important work.
