On April 22nd, CPC Brooklyn Senior Services celebrated Earth Day with the opening of the rooftop garden. Members of the community gathered to partake in the planting of flowers, vegetables, and herbs. The garden was made possible through a joint effort between the center and our partners, which included NYU Langone, Brooklyn Grange, and Earth Matters.
Gardening has long been known to have health and therapeutic benefits, particularly for older adults. The rooftop garden would provide a peaceful and relaxing environment for the community members to tend to their plants and enjoy the outdoors.
