Cardinal Hayes Place

The 6th Street and Avenue B Community Garden, established in 1983, is a vibrant 17,813 square foot green space that serves as a sanctuary for local residents and visitors alike. With fruiting trees, flowering shrubs, and a variety of herbs, flowers, and vegetables, the garden fosters community engagement through crafting, horticultural workshops, culinary events, films, and multicultural performances. Operated by a dedicated membership and overseen by a Board of Directors, the garden is a model for urban preservation within New York City's network of community gardens. It provides programming and support as part of the GreenThumb initiative, enriching the East Village and Lower East Side communities through countless free events each season.
