Join The New Garden Society, Saturday, November 16th, for a sunset celebration at the Boston Nature Center, complete with a silent auction, food and drinks. Hear from members of our organization about the past decade of work, and join us in envisioning the decades to come.
Since 2013, TNGS has been teaching and planting behind the walls of Greater Boston prisons, jails, and juvenile detention centers. We transform these landscapes into productive gardens that provide a therapeutic space, access to fresh food, and educational resources for our incarcerated neighbors. Through our programs, incarcerated individuals practice job skills and connect with their peers and their environment. We’ve trained nearly 1000 individuals in the art and science of plants. We don’t do it alone. Donations from friends, family, and businesses have sustained this transformative work.
As well as being a celebration, this is a fundraiser to support our ongoing work. We are offering a limited slate of tickets at no cost. We hope that those who can afford to do so will donate generously. If free tickets run out, and cost is a barrier to you, reach out to info@thenewgardensociety.org to attend.
