Thank you for all you do! Ensuring that every student can be a farmer!

Learn about the groups helping our students garden and grow. Check out some of the cool events over the years hosted in the garden, too!

Would you like to support the garden? Express your interest in helping student gardeners grow by filling out the PS 48 School Garden Interest Form.

We seek garden equipment, planting materials (seeds, soil, compost, seedlings), and expertise. You can also directly contact Mr. Justin Czarka at mrczarka (at) gmail (dot) com or (718) 589-4312. 

Help us achieve our goal of ensuring every student is an urban farmer. Because every child should know how to grow food!  You may also adopt our outdoor classroom by visiting DonorsChoose.org.  Want more thanks?  Check 'em out! or follow the Garden News.
