Ashford Learning Garden

341 Ashford Street
East New York, Brooklyn
Founded: 2014

Working with Cypress Hills Local Development Corporation, GrowNYC built out this 2,250 square foot formerly vacant lot with 15 raised beds, several picnic tables, and lots of border planters.

 

This garden is under the jurisdiction of NYC Parks and supported by GreenThumb, the nation's largest urban gardening program. If you are interested in joining, starting, or supporting a community garden, contact NYC Parks GreenThumb.
