WHAT CAN I DO TO HELP SAVE THE PVCG LAND?
So far, we have sent 748 letters from gardeners, concerned citizens and residents as well as scientists. We have also collected 675 names on our petition and collected 6 letters so far of local organizations!
We have reached out to our Community Board 11, our Council Member, NYC Parks & Recreation and its agency GreenThumb, the Manhattan Borough President's Office, the Comptroller, the City Council, Mayor de Blasio, and even the NY state senator.
We have sent the petition last Fall to the Mayor, the HPD Commissionner, and our councilwoman.
The local organizations supporting us so far are: Cada Paso, Youth Action Youth Build, Sinergia, 36 staff members and teachers of P.S.112, and Edible Schoolyard team at P.S.7.
