“The Community Grafting Project” is a living public artwork commissioned by the City of Cambridge from the architectural and design studio TSKPxIKD. When a beloved apple tree was removed as part of the reconstruction of #CambridgeMA’s Tobin Montessori and Darby Vassall Upper Schools complex, cuttings from the tree were saved. A new rootstock tree is expected to be planted at the renovated schools this spring. When it gets well rooted there, plants grown from the cuttings of the original apple tree will be grafted onto it.
