In keeping with the MAMAS theme that everyone has something to offer and everyone has things that they need, the MAMAS Gardening Collective invites people to give what they can (land, soil, seeds, time, other resources) and take what they need (vegetables, fruits, friendship, and more).
The collective strives to provide the community ways to achieve food sovereignty and reduce the ill-effects of food insecurity. We offer help and support to the community to make gardening and food production more accessible, local, and decentralized throughout Somerville and Medford.
Any and all are welcome in this endeavor, and you can be a part of it at any level—whether you’d like to harvest some locally-grown vegetables (but didn’t have the space to grow them), or want to offer something that can be of use (yard space, gardening skills, seeds, etc.), or volunteer to manage a garden, and more. MAMAS is working on setting up gardens in many neighborhoods, so fresh produce can be accessible to all, regardless of location or economic status, making it a true community effort.
There are many ways you can be involved in the project, including but not limited to
We currently hold online meetings on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at 5:15pm. If you would like to attend or are interested in helping in any way, you can fill out our interest form.
