Who We Are
Green Cambridge works to educate and engage residents toward everyday resiliency by connecting the importance of urban agriculture, the urban tree canopy, and urban wilds. We use these public spaces to provide place-based educational discovery opportunities for all ages and backgrounds. Building off of permaculture principles, they envision a more socially connected and equitable present
that works toward a climate-resilient future.
Our urban farm in East Cambridge connects communities to the growing cycle. We’ve helped lead Cambridge toward NetZero energy goals ahead of other cities and towns. We prize the value of all trees growing in the city, no matter whose property they grow from. We support all work toward removing pavement and parking and increasing transit, pedestrian and bicycle facilities for a cleaner, safer, and healthier future. We educate emerging generations on the urban flora and fauna found in our city through multi-generational celebration.
