Bringing Healthy Food to the Community

Boston Nature is dedicated to helping the community grow and find healthy produce. A community garden allows community members to grow their own veggies. Boston Nature Center is partnering with Moose Hill Wildlife Sanctuary to bring freshly grown produce to BNC each week as part of our Farmers Market. 

In addition, we are home to Boston Food Forest Coalition's first flagship food forest demonstration site, which reflects the cultural preferences of the surrounding community, offers access to healthy food for those who need it most, and serves as an educational model.
