Gardeners living between Avenue D and the Bowery (14th Street to Delancey) can apply for a plot. The day we were here, we met a young man who was organizing an event called “Under the Stars and Out of the Bars.” He spoke at length about his love for his plot and this garden space. We were amazed at how much they have to offer. There is a community compost, neighborhood yoga, storytelling, a stage for performances, poetry, art and local singer songwriter events. And to feast your eyes, there is a goldfish pond and turtles!
