Gardens of Egleston
Gardens of Egleston is a community storytelling project about gardening, food, culture, and resilience in Boston’s Egleston neighborhood. We are mapping our gardening commons to remember the wisdom of Egleston’s gardeners as our neighborhood navigates social, environmental, and economic challenges.
We are grateful to our Egleston community, Friends of the Egleston Square Branch Library, the Citywide Friends of the Boston Public Library, the Leventhal Map Center and Community History Department of the Boston Public Library, and MassHumanities for helping make this project possible.
