When I worked in social services I referred many people and youth to their offices. NY Cares is a great place to volunteer or work off community service requirements!

Hack Manhattan is an amazing maker-space. After looking at the maker-space offerings in the New…read moreYork City area, this is the one I choose to become a member of. It's humble with helpful people and fun times. It's centrally located very near multiple subway stations and bus stops. Membership is cost-efficient (monthly rates of $50/students or poor, $100/adults with jobs). Members of Hack Manhattan come from all walks of life with various interests from quilting and beer-making to woodworking and electrical circuit design. There's even some phone phreaks that set up an Asterisk PBX with four adventure games and a monthly lock-picking class! Of course, there are going to be a few people in the world who can't stand diversity and the inclusiveness that exist at Hack Manhattan, to which is said: GO AWAY. Intolerance is not allowed at HM. There are clearly posted guidelines for behaviour and if one can not accept them, they need to go elsewhere.

The organizers are very welcoming, willing to help you partake in even quite niche STE(A)M hobbies. Some of the pieces of equipment available are a couple 3d printers, multiple types of woodworking machines, and a CNC router. I know I am missing some, there's too many to list. The nice thing is that they have open houses every Tuesday and Thursday at 7 PM. However, they do suggest that regulars consider joining as a paid member. Disclaimer: I am NOT a paid member, as of writing this review.

My daughter learned a lot of her DIY skills from volunteering with Habitat. They have my financial support and I hope you donate time or money. It's a great nonprofit organization!

At the cafeteria, breakfast is first come, first served from 10-11am. They have a very limited menu featuring granola bowls with yogurt, fruit puree, granola, and dried fruits. They also have soft boiled eggs, scones, muffins, coffee, and tea. Everything was fresh, hearty, and delicious. They also serve lunch in the cafeteria, but that requires a reservation. There is a Michelin starred restaurant on the property as well. The spacious grounds are a treat to walk. They rotate the location of the animals so it's a pleasant surprise to happen upon them. We saw goats, pigs, and cows. The pathways have gravel, but they were not super rough. We had two strollers with us and no issues pushing them along. We walked the short loop, but there are longer trails for those who want more. Very family friendly and peaceful for a stroll.

The tour was interesting but rather short and you don't fully see the whole farm. The bakery was probably the best part of the tour since you learn about their whole wheat baking and get to see the mill. The tour was a bit expensive so probably would skip the tour. The tray lunch was good though, the ingredients taste really fresh and you can tell nothing is processed. The farm was large and it was nice to walk around.
