Let's Plant Seeds of Hope at Greenthumb's Brook Park

Event overview

TMC NYC Returns to Brook Park after a Long Hiatus. Brook Park was an abandoned lot reclaimed by Local Community Advocates in the Late 90's. They turned this Concrete Lot into a Green Oasis, years in the Making. TMC NYC will continue to assist by getting our Greenthumb On with Planting 150 Plants 🌱 in their 10 Raised Garden Beds. Amongst other tasks, this is a Second of a Series of Support Projects as we Prepare for the Grand Reopening of this lovely Greenspace.

NYC Greenthumb has been instrumental in the Redesign during it's 2 yr renovation with Community Input. An ADA Walkway was installed along with Wheelchair Accessible Raised Garden Beds. They'll be utilized for Flowers and Vegetable Growing for the Season. Join us as we assist on this worthy cause. Charlie Mike!

Who We Are

In 2025, Travis Manion Foundation (TMF) acquired The Mission Continues, bringing two best-in-class organizations together to provide more opportunities for veterans to find community, lead, and serve. Guided by the ethos “If Not Me, Then Who…,” veterans continue their service, build connections, and thrive in their post-military lives by serving as character role models to youth. As a result, communities prosper and the character of our nation’s heroes lives on in the next generation. Learn more about TMF at travismanion.org

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.
