Description
EarthWorks is a non-profit organization working to create a healthier and more sustainable environment in Greater Boston. Our Urban Orchards Program is a greening and food production program that operates with local groups to plant, maintain, and harvest fruit- and nut-bearing trees, shrubs, and vines on public land. In the Urban Wilds Program we partner with the Boston Parks Department to ecologically restore city-owned natural areas. Our Outdoor Classrooms Program provides environmental education to Boston public school children by using schoolyard orchards as learning space. The Setback Tree Project is a one-year pilot program focused in Jamaica Plain, MA working to plant trees on private property near public right of ways for communal benefits, such as shade and street beautification.
