Community Gardens

Welcome to the heart of green in the City of Revere! We are thrilled to invite you to explore and be a part of our thriving community gardens. Our mission is simple yet profound—to cultivate a space where neighbors come together, dig into the soil, watch their gardens blossom, and build a sense of community. There are four existing community gardens in Revere.

The 2025 Garden Season opens on May 1, 2025!
