Event overview

Hello Everyone! At this point, many of us have probably been inside throughout most of the winter and for good reason. It's cold outside. If the weather looks good, we'll be back out at Rincon Criollo Community Garden once again, not doing cement! This time around, we'll be removing all of the bricks/stones they no longer need, as well as removing our dirt hill we created from our previous projects to make way for a greenhouse build. We could use any help that you can bring for this event. I hope to see you out there. How to get there: By Car - Enter Rincon Criollo ~ La Casita de Chema or 749 Brook Ave, Bronx, NY, 10451 By Train - Take the 2 or 5 trains to either Jackson Ave or 3rd Ave/149th Street. Walking to either train stations take the same amount of time. Trains may act up on the weekends, so plan accordingly. By Bus - Take the Bx15 or Bx21 bus to 3rd Ave and East 157th Street.
