About this event
A weekly morning working alongside Queens Botanical Garden's horticulture staff — autumn planting, cutting back, mulching and bed clearing across the garden's collections. No experience needed and tools are provided. It is the most sociable way into a garden that normally charges admission, and the Thursday slot runs right through October.
Why we picked it
Hands in the soil in one of Queens' best green spaces, free, every Thursday morning — and a genuine way to meet people rather than just look at something.
