Green Organizations

We meet monthly at the Eastern Bank community room in Harvard Square, usually on the first Thursday of every month at 6:30pm. These meetings are open to the public and we invite you to attend and share your environmental concerns with us as well as your energy and enthusiasm for addressing them.

The Green Streets Initiative is a Cambridge, MA based organization, founded in 2006. We are dedicated to celebrating and promoting the use of sustainable and active transportation in the Boston region and beyond.

Our mission is to get people to rethink their commutes through our monthly Walk/Ride Days. For most people, commuting is a thoughtless action, just a repetitive extension to their morning routine. Walk/Ride Days were started to combat this gap by encouraging people to become more aware of their transportation options and to increase the dialogue about the alternatives.

At The Resiliency Institute, we use permaculture education, growing food projects, and community engagement to build resilient communities.

WHAT WE DO

We offer courses in permaculture, herbalism, edible wild plants, homesteading, and more. Some courses are over the course of a year, others are evening courses or weekend hikes.

We host Permablitz events at our Growing Food Security edible forest gardens and potlucks on the farm to view films, swap seeds, or celebrate community.
