Every year, GrowNYC’s Open Space Greening Program holds a Spring Plant Sale in order to provide community groups with perennial and annual flowering plants, herbs, ground covers, and vegetables from Greenmarket farmers at wholesale prices. Plants are for neighborhood open space projects only (e.g. community gardens, schools, block associations, churches, etc.) and may be sold to raise other funds.
