Protect, restore, maintain and promote the landscape, waterways and parkways of the Emerald Necklace park system as special places for people to visit and enjoy.
The Emerald Necklace Conservancy focuses on:
- establishing community commitment through advocacy and education, and by building an enlarged, united and diverse constituency for the Emerald Necklace;
- creating and supporting maintenance plans which ensure that the six parks are managed as a cohesive system;
- providing private sector and individual support to augment limited municipal parks budgets in Boston and Brookline in order to ensure Emerald Necklace restoration and on-going maintenance efforts.
Volunteers are welcome to assist in the administrative operations of the organization or the advocacy and execution of several on-going conservation projects:
- Muddy River Restoration
- Back Bay Fens Flood Mitigation
- Replanting trees and shrubs
- Woodlands Restoration
- Carlton Street Footbridge Restoration (Riverway Park, Brookline)
