The mission is to bring the beauty of the natural world into the lives of children and adults in all five boroughs of New York City. They aim to sponsor educational programs that: develop appreciation and knowledge of nature; teach gardening skills; and support the preservation and improvement of the city’s environment.
The mission of the Club is to preserve, enrich, and increase the natural beauty of the environment, with special regard to our city, for the public benefit through education, horticulture, conservation and other related undertakings. Consideration will be given to the creation or expansion, or maintenance of urban gardens and farms that improve the daily life experience of area residents. Projects that seek funding for seeds, plants, soil, mulch, fertilizer/compost and garden tools will be prioritized. Projects that include an educational experience will be further prioritized. Seasonal internship programs will be considered.
