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. During WWII, the City of Boston established 49 areas (including the Boston Common and the Public Garden!) as ‘victory gardens’ for citizens to grow vegetables and herbs. As the oldest and largest continuously operating WWII Victory Garden in the U.S., the Fenway Victory Gardens are home not only to vegetable gardens, but to floral gardens, a community herb garden, an accessible garden, an apiary, a nursery, and a teaching garden. A meadow at the gardens’ center is ideal for picnics, yoga, bocce, and plenty more. Come and spend an afternoon exploring our special part of the Boston parks system!
