A volunteer session where people help care for ground beds and standing planters at a paved lot in Astoria, Queens known as 'The Sitting Area'. Friends of Triboro G hosts the weekly gathering, and the work includes weeding, seed saving, pruning, and mulching with a focus on accessibility and inclusivity. Volunteers of all ages are welcome and should meet at the lot at 21st St & Hoyt North.
