Thank you GreenThumb!
The Wheelchair-Accessible Table-Top raised bed workshop happened today, Tuesday, March 21st .
GreenThumb and Park’s Staff: Anthony Reuter (Outreach Coordinator GreenThumb), Mara Gittleman (Special Programs Coordinator, GreenThumb), Victor Polanco (GreenThumb Outreach Manager), Chris Noel (Accessibility Coordinator for NYC Parks) and Eric Thomann (the ‘builder’ -who will also be running a workshop called: “Toys from Twigs” at the GreenThumb Grow Together Conference this weekend) were on hand to instruct and help out.
M’Finda Kalunga Gardeners Bob (Head Gardener), Debra (Co-Chair), Jenifer (Children’s Programming) and Carol (the worker) and K (pretend gardener) also were on hand.
It was heartenning to see all the participants from around NYC! And we all left with birdhouses for our feathered friends.
