We work with communities across Canada to create vibrant public places that help solve the most pressing issues cities face. Each project is a showcase of what’s possible. See our work below.
Evergreen is a national non-profit transforming public spaces in our cities to build a healthier future for people and our planet.
We know that our public spaces need a change and transforming them takes a community of action. We want you to be part of that community.
