Seasonal Planting Parties

Ready for the frost? Or maybe you're planning for the spring heat? Our seasonal parties are less about lectures and more about community action. We provide the organic seedlings; you provide the energy. It's the best way to meet fellow green-thumbs in the city.

We've held over 50 parties in the last 3 years. It's how we build a greener New York, one pot at a time. What are you waiting for?
