Our 2025 series continues in Boston...

This tour focuses on a few new "food forests" of the Boston Food Forest Coalition.

According to BostonFoodForest.org:

BFFC is "working at the intersection of green space equity and climate resilience.

We are a coalition of neighbors working to transform vacant lots into locally-run, edible, public parks protected by our land trust.

Together, we’re building a network of environmental and social resilience across Boston through community collaboration and the protection of local green space, prioritizing neighborhoods with histories of inequitable access to parkland and its critical benefits."

There are now 14 urban food forests in Boston! And new ones are growing at a rapid pace toward a goal of 30 by 2030.
