My Nonprofit Reviews

Eastie Farm has done amazing work in the East Boston community. It started when a small group turned an abandoned lot into a community garden. I helped pull out lots of Japanese knotweed in that garden in the early years. Since then, Eastie Farm has become the caretaker for half a dozen community gardens in East Boston, built the first geothermal greenhouse in the region, and runs a CSA that includes free shares for those in need. It also has a lot of wonderful programming throughout the year, including educational workshops and summer programming for students to foster the next generation of environmentally-minded people. It also has community programming, including comedy nights and solstice events. I love being part of an organization that is a force for the community and that is open to all.
