Everett students are digging into local food — literally!

Our Youth Crew wrapped up the final harvest of 2025 at Everett Community Growers’ Northern Strand Farm!

Fresh carrots, herbs, and Swiss chard went straight to Everett High School, where Chef Charlie and his team are turning them into healthy, delicious soups for students.

This , we’re celebrating the connection between local farms, school cafeterias, and classrooms — growing healthy minds, bodies, and communities! 💚 Whitsons Culinary Group Everett Public Schools, Massachusetts

Last month, ECG proudly celebrated 2025 MA Urban Ag Week 🌱🎉 with a series of events showcasing the power of urban agriculture. We kicked things off with a Guided Sensory Walk 🚶‍♀️🌿 at our Northern Strand Community Farm, followed by a Film Screening & Panel 🎬💬 featuring our staff and community garden growers. Together, we explored diverse practices, shared techniques, and learned from one another.

We wrapped up the week with a huge milestone—the 10th Anniversary of our Tremont Street Community Garden 🎂🌻—where we celebrated and honored our incredible growers for their hard work and dedication over the past decade.

It was such an honor to celebrate with our community 💚 and recognize all the amazing work that keeps our community thriving! 🌾✨
