Most stars, including all massive stars, form in clusters. Here, I present (sub-)millimeter observations of young stellar clusters in two well kown massive star forming regions. First, I discuss relatively low mass cluster formation across the Rosette molecular cloud and the influence of the OB association, NGC 2244 (the Rosette nebula) on their properties. Second, I present SMA observations of the Trapezium cluster in Orion and the detection of emission from protoplanetary disks (proplyds) around 4 low mass stars. The implications for Solar System scale planet formation around low mass stars in high mass star forming environments are discussed.
