Mattahunt Woods Urban Wild consists of over six acres of forested wetlands in Mattapan. Today, portions of Mattahunt Woods are impacted by dumping of construction debris and automobile parts as well as invasive plants, but there are still healthy plant communities and wetlands. The City of Boston is working to restore Mattahunt Woods' natural ecosystem while making it a place for residents to enjoy.

Please join us for a virtual open house on Wednesday, September 13, 2023 at 6:00 - 7:30 pm.

We will share project updates, present the final design for the site, collect your feedback, and discuss next steps for the remainder of the project.
