The magic of public places

For over 30 years, Evergreen has transformed urban places into green, climate-ready public spaces – improving the health of people and our planet. When public spaces are designed with nature at their core, they become the roots of a strong community. Did you know nature-rich spaces are proven to increase:

  • Physical and mental wellbeing
  • Social cohesion within communities
  • A city’s resilience to natural disasters
  • The biodiversity of urban ecosystems

Now, more than ever, these places are critical to the health and wellbeing of people and our planet as we strive for a better world for generations to come.

Projects we support

These groundbreaking projects show what’s possible in public spaces. Working with local communities and experts across Canada, we’ve transformed these spaces into irresistible, accessible, climate-ready places where people and nature thrive side by side. Each unique project illustrates that human activity can coexist with and even support a healthy, thriving environment and that great places impact communities today and for generations to come.

Every memory is a reason to support

For over 15 years, Evergreen Brick Works has been a place where we get together in real life and make memories, whether it’s at the Farmers Market, free community festivals, kids camps or just a coffee and a walk. But this magical place doesn’t exist by default. It relies on the care and support of people like you to keep it running.
