The New York City Community Garden Coalition's mission is to
1) Promote the preservation and creation of community gardens and community-developed open space in the five boroughs of New York City.
2) Educate the public about the value of gardens and the benefits they confer on New York City residents.
3) Serve as an effective resource for providing information and technical support to community gardeners.
4) Raise the profile of community gardening among elected and appointed officials, the media, the environmental community and the general public.
5) Foster networking and communication among the NYC garden communities.

Welcome! If you live in New York City and are interested in the preservation of community gardens, please join this group to be kept informed about the Coalition's news, to discuss matters related to the Coalition's activities and share information related to NYC Community Gardens, to post messages about your community garden's concerns, share your photos and invite other city gardeners to your garden events.
