Greene Acres is a community garden on the corner of Greene and Franklin Avenues in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn.
Our members grow fruits, vegetables, flowers and herbs, harvest eggs, run a composting program, and host community events. Visitors and new members are always welcome to come see our projects, visit our goldfish and chickens, and relax under the trees.
