GreenThumb community gardens are developed, led, and cared for by dedicated volunteer gardeners who critically upkeep them as public green spaces.
Through the help of community board 4, what use to be a old outdoor gym has become a large community garden now called Sparrows Nest. We invite all community members to join us and become involved with something so vital in our lives... nature!. Sparrow's Nest is in the process of reinventing the space and looking for new garden members. This is a great opportunity to join a growing garden, and start your gardening dreams!
No experience is necessary, and everyone is welcome, just show up!
Sparrow’s Nest is working toward being open 20 hours each week for all to enjoy. It’s a place to connect with nature, grow together, and strengthen our neighborhood roots.
This event is co-hosted by NYC Parks GreenThumb. We are proud to be the nation’s largest urban community gardening program, sustaining over 550 gardens throughout New York City. With GreenThumb’s support, community gardens are centers of environmental justice, ensuring that our city is fairer, safer, and greener for all. GreenThumb’s events are free and open to the public.
