About Nature Rx at Michigan

We believe nature can heal. Despite working or studying in different units across the university, we have all been impacted by nature - whether through photography, gardening, or hiking. With this conviction, we've come together as a project team determined to spread the word and help people connect to the natural world.

Nature Rx at Michigan began in 2019 through one student's bright idea at the Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum and since then, we have grown into a project team of over 20 volunteers and 12 sponsors. In 2023, we launched the Michigan Nature Rx App which has been a powerful tool for discovery and outreach.
