The Somerville Community Growing Center is a decades-old, city-owned, quarter-acre sized green space run primarily by volunteers and stewarded by The Friends of the Community Growing Center, a 501(c)3 non-profit. A space for gathering, learning, and celebrating, it has a long history of building local community through environmental and multicultural educational programs and events. Overseen by volunteers, it's a community gathering space for people of all ages, not only for cultural events, playgroups, readings and festivals, but also for anyone who wants to get their hands dirty, have access to vital green space, and explore a bit of nature in the city.
The Somerville Community Growing Center was born out of the rubble of the old Southern Junior High School at the corner of Vinal Ave and Summer Street, just outside Union Square. In 1991, under the leadership of then-Mayor Michael Capuano, a group of citizen activists came together to create a new kind of educational, community-focused garden and green space. A place for people of all ages and backgrounds to gather, learn, celebrate, and grow community, this shared quarter-acre space with no private plots provides public access to vital green space, free cultural events and performances, and volunteer opportunities.
