Citywide Nursery Gardening

Join the NYC Parks Stewardship Team at the Citywide Nursery for a hands-on gardening experience where you’ll help pot up perennials into larger grow pots and maintain our plant hoop houses—crucial work that supports the city’s green spaces! No experience is needed; our knowledgeable staff will guide you every step of the way. Come prepared with sturdy boots or shoes, long pants, and clothing that can get dirty, as the nursery can be muddy and dusty. This event is best suited for volunteers ages 13 and up, and registration is required as space is limited. Join us for a rewarding day of working with native plants and contributing to NYC’s thriving urban ecosystem!
