Update after the event
On May 3, 2025, we gathered for our second celebration of Biodiversity—and what a wonderful afternoon it was!
Together with our partners at Biodiversity for a Livable and Climate Boston Birding, we welcomed neighbors for native plant activities, bird-watching, a Miyawaki forest tour, and music. We also introduced the community to our upcoming Native Plant Pollinator Garden project, which will bring more biodiversity and beauty to the heart of the park. Learn more about the project and join us here.
Thank you to everyone who came out and helped make the day so special!
