GrowNYC's Annual Spring Plant Sale

**ORDERING FOR THE 2020 PLANT SALE HAS ENDED**

 

Every year since 1986, GrowNYC holds our Annual Spring Plant Sale in order to provide community groups with perennial and annual flowering plants, herbs, and vegetables from Greenmarket farmers at wholesale prices. Plants are for neighborhood open space projects only (e.g. community gardens, schools, block associations, churches, etc.) and may be sold to raise other funds. 

Our 2020 Plant Sale will have 2 pickup locations:

Brooklyn pickup - location TBD
Thursday, April 30th from 12pm to 4pm
Friday, May 1st from 12pm to 4pm
Saturday, May 2nd from 12pm to 4pm

Bronx pickup - location TBD
Friday, May 8th from 12pm to 4pm 
Saturday, May 9th from 12pm to 4pm
 


The 2020 Plant Sale is made possible by the generous support of Wells Fargo

In a moment where New Yorkers have turned to parks and gardening to ease the mental and emotional strain the Covid-19 pandemic has taken on residents, when the need for education surrounding nutrition and health couldn’t be more critical, the same nonprofits that make green space and nutrition education possible are in danger of going under, while vital city agencies like the New York City Parks Department’s GreenThumb program are facing severe budget cuts.
