Good Natured

Who we are.

Metroparks Toledo believes everyone deserves to benefit from the outdoors. In the spirit of trying new things, building confidence, and having fun together in the outdoors, Good Natured is a Metroparks Toledo membership-based community of women, and allies of women, who want to further engage in the outdoors and with each other. Opportunities will be offered throughout the year to come together for speaker events, volunteer initiatives, and fun outdoor experiences, all with the goal of trying new things, encouraging one another, meeting people where they are at, and breaking down barriers for others along the way.

What we sow.

Rooted in Metroparks Toledo’s mission to conserve and preserve our region’s natural resources and to connect everyone to those resources, Good Natured exists to help break down the barriers that prevent historically underserved individuals, groups, and communities from experiencing, engaging with and benefiting from our area’s natural resources.

Each year, funds raised through the Good Natured initiative will assist Metroparks programming to create life-changing memories and connections to the parks. This outreach is focused on introducing those communities to new and fun ways to experience the outdoors.
