This May, the Floret Coalition is supporting The Peoples Garden. The Peoples Garden is an Afro-Latino cornerstone space focused on community and environmental sustainability in the Bushwick neighborhood of Brooklyn. The garden hosts health, wellness, and agriculture workshops, fostering a sanctuary where people care for the land and each other. Donations support workshops, multiple annual music performances, tenants’ rights groups, immigration and legal support, and mutual aid.
