Lionette's Market is the Market for The Garden of Eden restaurant (which is located close to Lionette's). They have a full service deli with prepared salads, vegetables, meats and select entrees. They stock a small amount of fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as gourmet dry and canned foods. They have a great selection of natural, as well as foreign brands- and both look amazing! The tiny market is "airplane-free", a new concept of eco-ethical trade to us. All of the young cheeses are from New England. The only European cheeses are old enough to ride on a boat. Preserved items are all locally made. He knows his 100 purveyors by first name. But it's immediately obvious that Jamey's true love is meat. A chalkboard at the door advertises "Today's Fats", including house-rendered Lard, Duck Fat, and Vegetable Shortening. Jamey buys a half cow a week and a whole pig, grass-fed from Vermont. He makes all his own sausage and cures the bacon and steams the ham and takes up 1/3 of his deli counter to proudly display the side of bacon. Though small, Lionette's Market is definitly worth a visit! You are guaranteed to find something yummy to put in your tummy!

The venerable Garden of Eden has closed after 12 years in business. A large meal tax misunderstanding, high rents, and a declining customer base led the Lionette family to close the restaurant, though Lionette's Market remains open. Full Article

The Cedar Street Urban Wild is surrounded by residential housing on two sides and by community gardens on two sides. A pathway winds through the wild linking the Allan Crite Garden on Cedar Street to the Highland Center Garden on Linwood Street. Both gardens are managed by the Boston Natural Areas Network. A gate provides direct access to the urban wild from the abutting residential development. The wild can also be accessed from either community garden. A portion of the urban wild has been cultivated with perennial flowers and fruiting trees including hazelnut and apple. The most notable of feature of the urban wild is a large puddingstone outcrop located in the western portion of the property. Invasive sycamore maple and Norway maple dominate the site creating a shade so dense that little other than garlic mustard and mugwort survive in the understory. As a result, groundcover is sparse. A few pine oaks have survived near the rock outcrop.
