Come and join us at our oasis of green for one of the last days of summer. Proceeds will go towards supporting our community garden and to the advocacy organization New Yorkers4Parks in support of their Parks1Campaign. The Parks1Campaign strives to inform our public officials of the need and public desire to increase the Parks Department budget to at least 1% of the total city budget. As a city we spend less per resident on parks than Chicago, Phoenix, Seattle and San Francisco, and due to budget cuts over the past 20 years, the parks department staff has been cut by 65%. As a community garden we understand the importance of green space in the city and support all efforts to educate people about the need to maintain, improve and repair our parks. Help us help an organization dedicated to helping preserve and spread green spaces throughout our city.
