Beautiful greenspaces bring joy, fosters community pride and increases a property’s appeal. We design, build and maintain greenspaces and gardens that beautify buildings, developments, and neighborhoods with everything from planters to multi-acre gardens, to tree pits, raised beds and greenways.
We improve our city’s greenspaces and engage people with plants. The Hort’s programs are diverse, practical, therapeutic, and educational. We show that well-planned, equitable urban horticulture has the power to transform individuals, communities, and our environment.

We can`t wait to make them into pesto 😋 #homegrown #eatlocal
Last week our team of gardeners replaced a patchy lawn with vibrant trees and shrubs at PS81 in the Bronx 🌳
Students also had the opportunity to start an herb garden, growing thyme and sage near the entrance to their school.
We look forward to watching the garden grow with the students!
