The Charmacy Wildlife Center is a non-profit rehabilitation and education center dedicated to the care and rehabilitation of orphaned, sick or injured wildlife, returning these animals to wellness and releasing them back into the wild.   Animals and birds whose injuries prevent them from fending for themselves in the wild, are cared for at the center and  some of these become "teachers" and go out with Marcy to teach people about their world.  

The Wildlife Center is located in Holbrook and has been in operation as a state and federally licensed wildlife center for 23 years thanks to Marcy and many wonderful, caring individuals. It is very costly to run a wildlife center.  There is never a fee charged for the care given to the animals.  Sick animals require medications, food, housing, utensils, veterinary, and endless hours of cleaning and upkeep.  They depend on donations and fees from the educational programs to keep the center running.  For information about volunteering or donations please call Marcy at 781-767-5514.  A percentage of the day's sales will be donated to the Wildlife Center.

Please come and join us in experiencing the energy of these beautiful creatures up close!

Latest news:  Just a few weeks ago Marcy received a call from a local animal control officer asking for her help with two red tailed hawks that had gotten into trouble with a sticky substance that was illegally dumped in an open field.  The mother's and three-month old's feathers were covered with this undetermined substance and were unable to fly and were going into shock.  Marcy got the birds home, stabilized them and began the careful work of cleaning their feathers.  Two weeks later they are almost clean.  The youngster may be able to be released soon, the mother may take a while longer - her wings may be compromised from the trauma of being stuck and trying to pull herself free, and she will need more rehabilitation.
