What our organization offers: 
Situated in the heart of Boston's Fenway neighborhood and a link in Olmsted's Emerald Necklace, the Fenway Victory Gardens span seven acres tended by a community of almost 500 gardeners from every neighborhood in Boston, with a diversity of cultures, ages, abilities and experience.

The mission of the Fenway Garden Society (FGS) shall be to encourage the interest and cooperation of all gardeners in the Richard D. Parker Memorial Victory Gardens, to represent FGS in all dealings with third parties involving the gardens, to promote gardening techniques and principles to gardeners and the public, and to act as stewards of the parkland on which it operates.

Its purpose is to maintain and encourage urban gardening in the Victory Gardens for the benefit of all the people of the City of Boston, providing a chance to work outdoors, enjoy green space, and work with nature, as well as to cooperate with the Boston Parks Department and other related government agencies, community groups, and urban gardeners in preserving, maintaining, and beautifying city park areas and other green spaces.
