Boston Common and Public Garden, extending out to Back Bay, and all the way to Dorchester, this 1,100 acre, seven-mile-long public park system is a cherished green oasis in the heart of the city. Years ago, JC cultivated a plot in the Fenway Victory Gardens, where he grew edible and decorative plants, trees, and even some hop bines! Established two centuries after the Common, Bostons Public Garden became the first public botanical garden in America in 1837. Located in the heart of our city, its a key piece of the Emerald Necklace and features many of Bostons iconic sights such as the Swan Boats and the Make Way for Ducklings statues.
