Community Ecology Reading Group

Thursday, February 13, 2025

6:00 p.m.–7:30 p.m.

The Community Ecology Reading Group has been meeting for over a year, exploring trees, wildlife, waterways and more, and compiling a reading list on community ecology. In this meet-up, we'll make community ecology zines with the texts and images that have inspired us the most. Share your favorite excerpts with us, and the rest of the crafting materials will be provided. 

Hosted in partnership with Stuyvesant Cove Park, a Solar One program.

NYC Parks GreenThumb hosts this event. We are proud to be the nation’s most extensive urban community gardening program, sustaining over 550 gardens throughout New York City. With GreenThumb’s support, community gardens are centers of environmental justice, ensuring that our city is fairer, safer, and greener for all. GreenThumb’s events are free and open to the public.
