The Story of Our Flag

The first commissioned flag of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts was designed in 1908. Before then, many flags were used in various scenarios for various reasons. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts's first flag had a front and back design. The current flag was on the front, and on the back was a pine tree inside a blue shield. The shield represents the Blue Hills of Canton and Milton. The tree in the center represents a Pine Tree found throughout Massachusetts. 

Originally started as a passionate school project,  driven by a deep love for flags and a commitment to historical integrity. Amid the current controversies surrounding Massachusetts' state flag, we advocate for the return of the original design, which many believe better represents the state's heritage and values. Beyond historical significance, we also believe the current flag is plain and unoriginal, sharing the same format as many other state flags. Our mission is to educate the public about the original flag's significance and inspire a movement toward reinstating this distinct and meaningful symbol of Massachusetts' proud history. Through community engagement and advocacy, we aim to honor our state's past while addressing contemporary concerns and aesthetic values.
