☕ Conversation. Community. Connection.

Presented by: Ethos; Queer History Boston; The Pryde; LGBTQ Senior Housing, LGBTQ+ Elders of Color, and The City of Boston’s Mayor’s Office of LGBTQIA2S+ Advancement, Age Strong Commission, and Office of Youth Engagement and Advancement.

Mattahunt Woods Urban Wild Ribbon Cutting and Community Celebration

October 24, 2025
Event Date2025-10-24T13:00:37 - 2025-10-24T15:00:37

Please join the City of Boston for a ribbon cutting and community celebration for the completion of the Mattahunt Woods Urban Wild Restoration project. This will be a family-friendly event with activities for children and resources from various City of Boston Departments. This event is free and open to the public.

WHEN: Friday, October 24 from 1:00 - 3:00 p.m.

WHERE: Colorado Street entrance; 210 Colorado Street, Boston, MA 02126

ABOUT THE PROJECT

Mattahunt Woods consists of over eight acres of secluded forested wetlands in Mattapan. The site provides important wildlife habitat and native vegetation, and mitigates the impacts of stormwater runoff, but had become degraded over time. The City launched a capital improvement project in early 2023 to study the site, engage the Mattapan community to inform the project, and design a new trail system and other site improvements. Project goals and outcomes include removing hazardous trees and invasive species and increasing native vegetation; preserving and enhancing on-site wetlands; creating a trail system throughout the property improving site access and wayfinding/signage; and enhancing the connection of the property to the nearby Mattahunt Elementary School. Site restoration and trail construction began in Summer 2024 in partnership between the City of Boston's Environment Department, Parks and Recreation Department, Office of Green Infrastructure, and PowerCorps Boston.
