Cheap Bronx Room Available June 1 for Garden  Lover

The More Gardens! Office/Apartment has a room for  rent
beginning June 1. The rent is $425 a month plus
utilities. The  apartment has 3 bedrooms, one large
common area, an office area, kitchen  and bathroom. 

Ideally we would like someone who will devote  some
volunteer time to More Gardens! projects, including
fundraising,  garden cleanup, working with gardeners to
save their community gardens,  and/or a project of your
own design. But we will also welcome someone who  is at
least supportive of More Gardens! mission and who
appreciates  community gardens. 

The apartment is located in the South Bronx  near
Yankee Stadium, and it is close to the B/D/4
161-Yankee Stadium  subway stop and the 2/5 3rd Av-149
St. stop. Call Samantha at 718-986-8057  for more
information about the apartment. 

Info on Current More  Gardens! Projects:

More Gardens! is a non-profit organization,  which
works to preserve community gardens in New York City
and create  more gardens. Through the collaborative
efforts of More Gardens!, community  gardeners,
community members, activists and other garden support
groups,  hundreds of endangered community gardens have
been made permanent in New  York City.

Currently, the South Bronx and East Harlem are
undergoing  major housing development. Four years ago,
there were 23 community gardens  in the Melrose
neighborhood of the Bronx and now there are only  12
remaining. With the support of More Gardens!,
community members and  gardeners stood up to HPD, and 6
gardens were made permanent. More Gardens!  is working
with gardeners, the community, local developers  and
politicians to save the remaining gardens. In East
Harlem, More  Gardens! is collaborating with community
members at the Nuevo Esperanza  garden to maintain an
active encampment to prevent the destruction  of
gardens in the area and to call media attention to
their  plight.

More Gardens! is also gearing up for its second  annual
Animal Adventure Summer Camp for youth ages 9-13,
which will take  place in community gardens around the
Melrose neighborhood.
