Community Education --- Boxerwood is a "living lab."

• NEWTS cleans our own waste water.
• Rain gardens filter runoff.
• T-Rex (Thermo-dynamic Regulatory Exchange) Solar Collector heats the water we use for heating in Munger Lodge.
• Information boards throughout the garden hold information about habitats, plants, and animal behaviour.
• Munger Lodge, the Welcome Center, has reference books, pamphlets on plant care, and birding.
