Charitable Involvement
For over 70 years, the community of Middleton has made The Bruce Company the trusted name in outdoor living and gardening. It’s extremely important to us to show our gratitude, and find ways to support our community and local organizations. Our ‘Bruce Gives Back’ Initiative makes these local programs a priority, typically centered around an event at The Bruce Company or our various fundraising efforts.
Every time you visit the Garden Center, you’ll have the opportunity to support a local cause aimed at improving our community. We hope you join us in being an active member of the community and giving back however you can. Click the logos below for more information about each program The Bruce Company supports.
