Hey Everyone!
Happy Autumn! Although the big planting season is coming to a close, the action is just gearing up with TNT! we have a gardening event on Saturday that we need your help with, so come on out and help us transform the space behind the Bushwick Public Library into a garden oasis!
The kind folks at ioby.org will be filming a segment on Trees Not Trash’s Library Project for their website, so check them out and see how they have helped TNT make this garden happen! We’d love for your face to be on camera too!
We have the tools and materials to install some raised veggie beds as well as a compost bin and automatic watering system, and a generous donation from the rad people at Sprout Home!
Please meet at the Bushwick Public Library, located at 340 Bushwick Ave @ Seigel Street, this SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 25th at 11am! We will be planting and building until 2pm so come when you can and stay as long as you like! We have gloves and tools for you

See you Saturday!

your friends at Trees Not Trash!
hello melting friends
hopefully you are all surviving this ridiculously hot weather! we are going to brave the morning heat tomorrow to plant some lovely donations from The Sprout Home in our Bogart Garden, and check out how our tomatoes are faring in this heat. More foliage and shade equal a cooler climate, so come on out tomorrow, Sunday July 25th @ 11am at the Community Garden on Bogart @ Mckibbin and help do your bit for the environment. Bushwick definitely needs all the help we can give it to cool off! We’ve also got a hose, and a sprinkler!
See you tomorrow, troopers!
