Project snapshot

Polo Grounds Family Garden is increasing the garden?s food production capacity to better serve the community. Garden members are installing a slow-drip irrigation system to the raised beds to free garden members from manual watering. They are also growing vegetables and fruits so the garden can share more edibles with their neighbors. Cultivating an accessible community gathering space, the garden is also adding seatings and building a stage for open mics and children performances.
