Elizabeth Hubbard Memorial Garden

Stanton Street CSA is a volunteer-run, membership-based organization dedicated to providing healthy, locally sourced produce to residents of New York City's Lower East Side since 2005. Partnering with Windflower Farm in upstate New York, they offer a variety of vegetables, fruits, eggs, grains, and maple products, delivering fresh harvests weekly from June through November. Members commit to purchasing a season-long share of the harvest upfront, with pickups taking place every Tuesday evening. The community-oriented initiative not only fosters connections among neighbors but also emphasizes accessibility by offering discounted shares for lower-income members. Generated from the website

M'Finda Kalunga Community Garden, established in 1982, emerged from a grassroots effort to revitalize the Sara Roosevelt Park area by eliminating drugs and crime while protecting local housing. Over the years, the garden has transformed into a vibrant space where long-time organizers and new volunteers cultivate allocated plots and engage in community activities, fostering a sense of belonging. The garden features a children's area, a Bocce court, and a beautiful pond inhabited by koi and turtles, alongside cultural celebrations and educational workshops. With its commitment to activism and community engagement, M'Finda Kalunga serves as both a peaceful retreat and a hub for local residents, offering a variety of events and opportunities for participation.
