Fall is just around the corner and so are our fall tree giveaways.

Boston residents are invited to join us from 10 am - 2 pm on September 16 or October 28 to pick up a free tree to plant in their yards. On September 16 we will be in Allston-Brighton, and on October 28 you can find us in Mattapan.

You can register below. Also, check out our new and improved tree giveaways page that includes a video by our tree promoter Brandy and tools and lessons on how to plant a tree. 

Sep 16: Boston Green Academy, 20 Warren Street Brighton 

Oct 28: Urban Farming Institute, 487 Norfolk Street Mattapan 

During the 2023-24 school year, we are continuing to provide paid work opportunities for Boston youth ages 14-18. The program runs from mid-September to mid-June (exact dates TBD), Monday-Thursday from 4pm to 6pm at our offices in Fields Corner, Dorchester. The teens are required to attend at least twice per week.

Participants will care for trees, create social media content and educational resources, participate in outreach activities, and assist in the planning and hosting of our second annual Teen Tree Summit! 

Read more about the position and apply today. And, please share this opportunity with young folks you know!

For the past 10 weeks we've had two amazing interns join our team. As you may have noticed, our website is looking that much spiffier, our programs are running that much smoother, and our newsletters and social media are that much more engaging! (Among many many many other things.)

A big thank you to Nora Kelly and Hannah Axtell (second and third from the right side in the image) for their creativity and hard work this summer. They'll be missed! But, we also know that they'll be back to help us in watering, planting, and celebrating.
