In the News! SBNDC featured on CBS Boston

South Boston NDC was featured on CBS Boston on July 13.

Executive Director Donna Brown and Garden Supervisor Noah White talked with reporter Courtney Cole about our lot on D Street and West 7th, which we’ll be transforming into a pocket park and community garden thanks to a grant from Lowe’s Hometowns!

"This site is adjacent to a Boston public housing development, with lots of low- and moderate-income families living there. So, for them to be able to grow their own food is a way for them to save money and feed their families," Brown said.

"The end goal is to mainly have this be community-sustained, community-oriented. Have the people that are locally from here to take care of it, take care of it themselves," White said. 

Here are some “behind the scenes” shots from the interview.
