I would like to thank all of you who donated vegetables this past weekend. We were able to supply NY Food Banks with 150 pounds of vegetables. I would also like to specially thank those of you who came and collected the donations in the gruling heat. We all did really good - Adriann Musson

Please sign the petition to help our fellow community gardeners in Brooklyn and pass the message on.
