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, 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.

MEMBERSHIP
You can join Greene Acres as a composting member or a full member. Composting members get a key to the gate and a place to drop kitchen scraps. Full members play a larger role in garden work and planting decisions, and may join the waiting list for a plot.
We always need help with these chores during work days and other times. New members: to receive credit, note hours worked in the sign-in book in the shed.
