Brooklyn Botanic Garden is an urban botanic garden that connects people to the world of plants, fostering delight and curiosity while inspiring an appreciation and sense of stewardship of the environment.

Goals: Outreach & Education

Brooklyn Botanic Garden (BBG) will design and implement a forward-thinking 10-month Initiative for Community Composting program designed to engage children, families, school groups, and community gardening constituents in learning around compost through:

• On-site programs for families at BBG 

• Discovery Cart and drop-in learning opportunities

• Community programs and workshops (block walks, community garden support, street tree care)

• Refurbished exhibition demonstration site at BBG and associated programming

• Compost education classes (including ASL classes)
