Greenwood Wildlife Consignment Gallery & Thrift Shop

All proceeds from Greenwood Wildlife Consignment Gallery & Thrift Shop benefit the wild animals at our Center near Lyons, CO. Greenwood Wildlife Rehabilitation Center’s mission is to rehabilitate orphaned, sick and injured wildlife for release into their appropriate habitats. Greenwood also strives to educate the public, emphasizing humane solutions to human/wildlife interactions. Greenwood cares for nearly 3,000 wild birds, waterfowl/shorebirds and small mammals each year, 75% of which are orphaned. The average cost is $330 per patient. Since 1982, Greenwood has successfully released tens of thousands of animals, from hummingbird to coyote size, back to where they belong – in the wild and living free.

In 1982, the Humane Society of Boulder Valley founded a wildlife rehabilitation center at their facility. One year later, the family and friends of Natalie Gneiser, a young woman who was killed while trying to rescue an injured dog on the highway, donated memorial funds to this cause. Subsequently, the center was named after her – the Natalie Gneiser Wildlife Rehabilitation Center. After 14 years of continuous growth, the Center changed its name to Greenwood Wildlife Rehabilitation Sanctuary (now Center), named after the Center’s first rehabilitated raccoon who had been burned in a chimney fire. Since our inception, nearly 200 species have been rehabilitated at Greenwood.
