Ok,
So curiosity got the better of me and I decided to check the Boston
Harbor Islands website. It turns out that almost all the Islands are
managed by Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation
(used to be the Department of Environmental Management and
Metropolitan District Commission but the merged into the Department
of Conservation and Recreation last year). This is the same
department that manages our state forest and parks and our urban
parks.
The Islands managed by DCR:
Bumpkin
Gallops
Georges
Grape
Great Brewster
Lovells
Peddocks
Spectacle
Thompson
The only exceptions were:
Deer Island - managed by the Massachusetts Water Resource Authority
Little Brewster Island - managed by the U.S. Coast Guard
So lets go plant!
