Growing Greener with Green & Grow
Green & Grow participants learn an eco-friendly alternative to discarding our organic waste in landfills by taking part in a hands-on workshop, where they brewed their own compost tea with the help of Greenway Horticulture staff.
Preparing for Winter
There is a large amount of behind the scenes planning and work that goes into putting the Greenway’s lawns and garden beds to rest for the winter and the Green & Grow Apprentices are learning all about it.
“Welcome” New Green & Grow Class!
The transition into fall and the start of a new school year signals it is time to say farewell to our Green & Grow summer interns and welcome a fresh class of new faces for the 2011-2012 program year.
Graduating Green!
After 9 months of greening the parks and growing their skills, our talented Green & Grow apprentices will graduate into new job opportunities this summer.
A Cocktail on the Greenway
It’s not easy being a garden in the middle of downtown Boston. A garden bed in Dewey Square Park is suffering from deficient soils and poor drainage, and will soon be getting some additional attention from our Green & Grow teens. We’re using the soil and irrigation remediation of this bed as an educational opportunity.
Green & Grow Apprentices Bundle Up for The White Mountains

Budding Designers on the Greenway
Our Green & Grow apprentices recently learned just how much goes into planning a public park like the Greenway.
