To improve the foundation of human health, we need healthy food, which originates from healthy soil teeming with life. This healthy soil is derived from high-quality compost, which is created from food scraps. Come see the process of how your food scraps get turned into nutrient-rich compost.

Soil Culture is a creative project that scrutinizes soil degradation within the capitalist infrastructure of consumption and production, where soil is exploited without redress. The project traces remnants of these extractive cycles, which result in the accumulation of trash, polluted debris, and wasted materials in landfills. Utilizing art as a catalyst, Soil Culture aims to make visible what is often invisible, fostering embodied understandings of the environmental and social impacts of soil.

Located on a landfill in Essex County, Massachusetts, Soil Culture merges ecological thinking with first-hand immersive experiences to deepen understanding and inspire action towards an aesthetic view of soil. Through collaborative and non-hierarchical methods, Soil Culture is dedicated to fostering critical dialogue and empowering communities through the exploration of soil as a vital, dynamic entity intertwined with human culture and ecological systems.

​Soil Culture learns from the unceded ancestral land of the NaumKeag and Pawtucket bands of the Massachusett Tribe who have lived here for thousands of years. We recognize the interconnectedness of all beings and the deep loss that colonization and environmental degradation have caused. Soil Culture fosters a deep understanding and respect for soil and the land with its histories, to work towards a more livable future where all beings can thrive.

Volunteer to assist with Endicott College's annual College Cleanse program! Every May, the offices of Sustainability and Community Service collect unwanted clothing, décor, food, and books from students and redistribute them to the North Shore community. We recover upwards of $30,000 worth of items each year from entering the landfill. All volunteers get to take home whatever they want for FREE!
Please note that Non-Endicott community members are only eligible to volunteer for the "Donation Sorting" shifts at the Bourque Arena.

**This is a recurring event every weekday from 5/5 to 5/16. Sorting shifts are twice a day, 9-10:30am and 3-4pm.

Come and join us for Beverly's third annual plant swap at Obear Park on Sunday 18 May. This event is aimed at both experienced gardeners and those who are just getting started. Its mission is to create a vibrant, connected community in Beverly with more (native) flowers, fruit, and vegetables in all of our backyards.

How the swap works:
1. Bring healthy, pest free plants to contribute - these can be seedlings, perennials that youve dug up and divided from your garden, house plants, and so on. Don't worry if you don't have anything. Come and start your garden adventure with us!
2. Label each plant. We find cut up yogurt pots work well as free lables.
3. Have fun! You don't need a plant to participate. Enjoy coffee from Beantrust, talk to gardening & sustainability experts (Green Beverly and Plant Magic), and hang with your Beverly neighbors!
Extra details:
- event starts at 9am. First 30 minutes are drop-off only so that we can organize the plants and give people time to connect over coffee
- event is rain or shine as the swap is held under the pavillion at Obear
- free coffee from the awesome Beantrust Coffee Bar will be served for those who want it; please consider bringing a reusable cup, though we will have compostable ones and a compost bag available
