After CP&GC member Renata von Tscharner founded Charles River Conservancy in 2000, the Conservancy continues to thrive under a new director. CP&GC has collaborated on multiple projects with the Conservancy, most recently at Hell’s Half Acre to reclaim the river bank.

CP&GC has long worked at the site of the second oldest house in Cambridge. Donating and planting trees, renovating the Colonial Revival fence and gate, planting thousands of spring bulbs, managing lawn care, completing myriad clean ups among many other contributions.

Cooper-Frost-Austin House is the oldest documented house in Cambridge and owned by Historic New England. A propaated clone of the “Longfellow Linden” was planted there by CP&GC.

The Cambridge Community Center has been serving children, youth, and families throughout Cambridge for over 90 years. A long-time project for CP&GC, we hope to again garden there.
