The Fenway Victory Gardens are located on City of Boston parkland in the Emerald Necklace. The Gardens are open from dawn to dusk, and the park is patrolled daily by the City of Boston District 4 Police and Park Rangers.

If you, someone you know, or someone you are observing are experiencing an emergency situation: Call 911.

If you observe individuals congregating in the Gardens outside of these hours or observe suspicious behavior or activities, including vandalism, please contact the appropriate City of Boston Departments in a timely manner (please file a written police report where appropriate):

  • City of Boston Police Department (emergency): 911

Please provide as much detail as possible (e.g., date, time, location, description of incident reported, including any description and value of items which may have been damaged or taken). These reports provide FGS with necessary information to render assistance to FGS members and collect data; information collected helps FGS advocate for needed resources.

Thank you for your help!

Additional Safety Guidance for Gardeners

  • Call 911 for any emergency, including if property has been vandalized. Filing a police report creates a paper trail that supports future safety actions.

  • Do not leave valuables or sentimental items in your garden plot.

  • Report recurring concerns such as encampments, needle usage, or other safety issues via 311, Park Rangers, or Boston Police non-emergency contacts.

  • We are working on improving signage to clearly mark rows and plots. This helps emergency personnel respond effectively, especially at night. In the meantime, please keep your plot and surrounding paths accessible.

Water is supplied to the gardens from mid-April through mid-October by the City of Boston.

Water leaks or issues should be reported in a timely manner by filling out this form, a copy of which will be sent to the Water/Pipes Team (water@fenwayvictorygardens.org) and the President and Vice President of the Park.. Please be as specific as possible in your submission.

We are not in the Gardens 24/7, but this information will aid us in handling any water issues quickly and efficiently.
