Origins
The James and Anne Robinson Foundation grew out of the Robinsons’ love for the land where they lived beside the Middle Patuxent River. In 2003, Mrs. Robinson created a trust to ensure that their beloved woods and wildlife would be protected and shared with future generations.
Vision
The Robinsons’ 18 acre homesite, which adjoins the Middle Patuxent Environmental Area, is now the site of Howard County, Maryland’s first publicly-owned nature center. Opened on September 10, 2011, the Robinson Nature Center offers children and adults the chance to learn about the natural world through science, history, the arts, and sustainable design.
Reality
The Robinson Foundation's primary mission is to support the Robinson Nature Center. The Foundation also sponsors a wide range of environmental events and initiatives of other environmental, educational, and community groups that share our commitment to connecting people with the outdoors.
