Welcome!

The garden was once a cement courtyard in a Cambridge public school building, shared by the Martin Luther King Jr. and Amigos schools. In August of 2006, construction began. The cement was lifted out with cranes, and volunteers from both schools wheelbarrowed truckloads of loam into the transforming space.

Today the garden is a vibrant outdoor classroom that directly supports teachers' curriculum. During volunteer drop-ins, students and their families share in garden maintenance, overseeing the entire growing cycle from seed to compost.

Thank you for your interest!

T.W.I.G. This Week in the Garden

THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS!

The latest soil delivery is in the garden, and the grapes are planted - thank you to all the kids and adults who gave their time and energy to the project!

This week, join us at Volunteer Drop-In, 3:00-5:00, for a more mellow array of activities.

Including:
  • Planting sunflowers, yard-long noodle beans, basil, dill, bleeding heart...
  • Creating a fenced digging area for our littlest gardeners...
  • Making artful bi-lingual signs for plant identification...
  • and more!
