Urban Agriculture and Climate Fair

Calling all urban farmers, gardeners, beekeepers, composters, fruit-tree enthusiasts, climate activists, and anyone interested in learning more about urban agriculture and climate justice in Boston! An annual celebration of 50+ years of urban agriculture in Boston. Play games, enter contests, and learn directly from local urban farmers, and climate activists who are on the ground feeding our community, and helping us stay connected to mother earth. Urban agriculture is one of our most powerful tools for climate resilience. It cools the city, captures carbon, holds stormwater, and nurtures the biodiversity that keeps our neighborhoods healthy. Come see how Boston's growers are on the front lines of climate action, building a greener, more biodiverse, and more resilient city one garden at a time - and how you can be part of it.
