Building great public places is what we do every day — and that work is never done alone. We work with community builders across sectors to solve some of the most pressing issues cities face: climate change, housing affordability, and access to nature and public spaces.
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.
In our latest guest writer series, author Perry King notes that parks, community centres, and playgrounds unlock opportunities for social and public gatherings.
