Through the Baldwin Civic Association, they asked to lease the land to make the community garden. 7 years later, the Garden gets better each year with new ideas, plants, gardens, outside decor, furniture etc. A gazebo was added to the garden, along with the brick path, the sensory walk the girl scouts created, the animal plant holders to the scent "scensory" garden. You can even come and pick up fresh mint or herbs from the garden. This community garden is a true treasure in North Baldwin. *I mentioned friend is the original creator which Yelp may decide to remove . Yelp may find this review to be conflict of interest.

The planted crops cover a large area of land surrounded by tall fences, but there's a bonus section. On the Onderdonk Ave side, there are a couple of raised beds outside the locked fence that neighbors are encouraged to sample. Currently there's some healthy looking kale growing tall and a bunch of green tomatoes peeking through leaves. It warms my heart to see things growing, that also serve to feed local needs. I saw a group lovingly tending to it as I came home a month ago, and have wondered how to get involved, but havent seen the crew again. Ill keep an eye out.

Since then, we have had three babies between us, and another is about a month from arriving. My husband, toddler, and I visited New York in large part to meet all the COVID babies in our friend group, only to find COVID surging yet again, taking out my old roommate's family for most of our trip. Thankfully, we were in town just long enough that they started testing negative, and we spent three precious hours in the Lincoln Berkeley Community Garden, catching up and watching the children play. We met up on a Friday afternoon, gathering my friend's two kids at their day care in Park Slope and heading to this community garden for a leisurely hangout before all the babies had to go to bed. We'd intended to go to a park, but this was more convenient, and turned out to be pretty ideal. It's a community garden where you can pay membership fees to plant and grow things, but where I think anyone can come in and enjoy the space. There were places to sit, including a couple of picnic tables, and the kids were able to roam around looking at the chickens and marveling at the pinwheels spinning in the wind. My only complaint is that there were mosquitos out, but I'd honestly expected to get eaten alive and escaped with just a couple of bites that didn't even itch. We had a wonderful time here, a reunion for the adults and a first playdate for the kids, who really took to each other. I'm not a community member, but I am grateful for the Lincoln Berkeley Community Garden. What a lovely place to sow memories, even in these years of plague.

Lonely as I am, together we cry. Sorry, my dear reader, I've been a little down in the dumps after a recent situationship went south. I'm trying to see the bright side in it. I think it will give me some space to breathe and allow me to blossom into the person the universe has destined me to become. But yeah, I've been coming here a lot recently to mope and be sad. It's important to let yourself feel feelings in order to process them.... Although wtf do I know I'm just so random dude reviewing a garden ahahahahah. This garden is LUCIOUS with greenery and BOOMING with life. It's so much greenery that it provides a bit of a shelter and capsule from the brutalistic concrete jungle. Sometimes it's just nice to be around life, even if it's not human you know? After all we human beings need sunlight just as much as plants, so it's kinda of nice to just sit and photosynthesize with them every once in a while........Damn I'm down bad ahahahahaha Be careful though you can get lost in here it's lowkey a maze!

Clinton Community Garden is open to the public 20 hours every weekend (10 hours Sat & Sunday). The rest of that time, it is closed off for residents or for those who have key access. Children and residents in this neighborhood does have access 7 days a week (which is fantastic) to learn how to eat healthy, grow their own vegetables, and live a healthy lifestyle. What I like most about the garden is the opportunity for residents in this neighborhood to get out of their apartments, and have a special space to call their very own, whether it be vegetations or to plant beautiful flowers. What an awesome way of team collaboration, and for the young minds to learn nature in the heart of West Side Manhattan!! For more info you can goto: http://clintongarden.org/ Until then, Cheers! ~ :p
