For our 24-hour drop-off to resume:
** Curbside Composting (organic waste pickup) — Pre-pandemic, DSNY picked up about 40% of our food waste; we composted 60% in-garden.
So, in order for a 24-hour drop-off to not overwhelm us, we need both: volunteers and DSNY to resume their pickup.

When the garden is open:
Tuesdays 1:30 – 3:30 pm;
Thursdays 3:30 – 6 pm (except Aug. 5)
For our 24-hour drop-off to resume again:
* One of our main volunteers was able to do 3 or 4 days a week pre-pandemic, including covering for others; and now, only 1 day, maybe 2 days, a week. So, need more volunteers.

In honor of MLK, the 12th Street Block Association along with Down to Earth Garden is participating in the National Day of Service by working together to make our block a better place to live by doing a street tree clean up, replacing tree guards for our new trees, and in preparation for spring planting.
Please join us at Down to Earth Garden, corner of 12 St and Ave B, Monday Jan 18 at 1:30 to honor MLK and help clean up our block.
