Support the NYBG 5K Fun Run

Kelcie Brown is raising money for The New York Botanical Garden

NYBG 5K Fun Run · 21 September 2025 · Start fundraising for this event

For the first time in NYBG’s history, a 5k run will be hosted on Garden grounds. This easy 3.1 mile course takes you past some of our most notable collections and supports our mission to advocate for and protect the natural world.

Story

I’m running at NYBG!

The New York Botanical Garden is holding its first-ever 5K Fun Run and I’m excited to participate.

NYBG is a special place and one that I care about deeply. NYBG's William & Lynda Steere Herbarium houses over 7.8M plant specimens from around the globe, and it's also where I spend most of my day as the Herbarium Collections & Data Coordinator!

NYBG is an advocate for the plant world, and I hope you will join me in supporting all that we do.

If you'd like to support my run (and by extension my job 😉) and the New York Botanical Garden, you may do so by clicking on the Donate button on my fundraising page.

Thank you!
