Woodcliff Street Nature Preschool

and Community Green Space

Our Vision

We believe that all families should have access to nature preschool, regardless of zip code or life circumstances. Thus, we have applied to the City of Boston to transform a vacant lot at the end of Woodcliff Street in Roxbury into a free nature preschool and community green space.

The lots at the end of Woodcliff Street are owned by the City of Boston and have been vacant since the 1980s.  We first started community engagement in October 2022 and submitted our nature preschool & community green-space proposal to the city in April 2024 with over 70 letters of support from community members and groups.  We hope to hear back from the city by September 2024.  Learn more about the city’s process here.
