We’re creating a 50ft x 40ft garden—But more than that, we’re building a safe, nurturing space where youth and their families in the Greenwich Village neighborhood can connect, grow, and thrive together. This garden will be a place for learning, laughter, and community, fostering a healthier and stronger future for everyone involved.
Our aim is to help and equip youth to demonstrate the 5 C’s of positive youth development.
