Happy Earth Day! The cherry trees are blooming. Birds are singing. Spring is here and with it hope. Today we renew our dedication to creating and restoring natural places in Greater Boston so that every person has access to the parks and green spaces that we know are essential for our health and well-being.

This earth day, we are particularly grateful to all the people who have dedicated their time to help envision and create community parks, community gardens, playgrounds and other green spaces: thank you designers, community leaders, donors, fellow nonprofits... We look forward to breaking bread with you when this pandemic is over.

For now, we recommend a host of local earth day events organized by our community clients and fellow community nonprofits. You can participate by joining in person or remotely; at a scheduled time or on your own time.
