Check out two upcoming events with Worcester St Community Garden!

1️⃣ First, their end of season Garden Party this weekend October 18th 3-5pm.
🎺There will be a Jazz quartet playing classic fall repertoire with a sprinkling of NOLA 2nd line, some spooky tunes, and maybe a bit of ska and reggae. Plus a thank you to departing Garden Coordinator Kory for all his time and service, Thank you Kory!

2️⃣ Second, a Halloween party October 31st 5pm-to late!
👻 A harvest is afoot at Worcester Street Garden. As October builds toward the Hunter’s Moon, something dormant has begun to stir in the deep roots beneath our city block.
On Halloween, enter the gates. Follow the candlelit path through poison specimens and forgotten graves to the Apothecary, where herbs hang from the rafters, fog spills from corners, and remedies await those who cross the threshold.

Both at 114 Worcester Street, Boston, MA
A 15 Minute walk from Mass Ave on the Orange Line, or Prudential on the Green Line

Over the course of three years through a generous Liberty Mutual Insurance grant, Zoo New England plans to plant 2,000 trees and shrubs in Dorchester and Roxbury. They are joining us to plant at Savin Maywood, Winthrop Street, Nightingale, and Bullard Street Community Gardens this fall.

"These efforts will create 2-4 new acres of tree canopy, produce 23 tons of oxygen, store 9 tons of carbon, and take over 47,000 gallons of water from the soil and release it into the air as water oxygen and water v***r – all of which will reduce the effects of urban heat islands"

Gardener Elnora says you often need to wait until after the first frost for the persimmons to be sweet and not astringent but she managed to collect some that reached that perfect level of ripeness already.

Her cues- the fruit take on a deep orange color, are very soft and wrinkled and, more often than not, have fallen to the ground.

After postponing for a week because of the nor'easter, Symphony Road Community Garden celebrated Good Neighbor Day last night. The purpose of the day is to combat the public health crisis of loneliness and social isolation by strengthening community bonds and social health. Gardeners showed up to socialize and open the garden gates to the broader Fenway community. Representatives from Senator Brownsbergers' office provided a citation to garden coordinator David for all of his good work in this realm.
