What’s on the horizon for NGT? What are you excited about in the future?This growing season, NGT launched the Gaining Ground Campaign to raise $1 million to secure land at more threatened gardens citywide. This will allow us to respond quickly to secure garden land through purchase and to support the day-to-day work of protecting threatened gardens now and into the future. We’re excited to reach our goal of 70 gardens by 2026. “Thinking about losing the garden was heartbreaking. With NGT as an advocate we can ensure a future for the garden, and they can help us maintain it in perpetuity.”— Vita Litvak, Pastorius Community Garden“We are neighbors and gardeners, not lawyers – if NGT didn’t help us preserve our garden, the land would have likely gone to the highest bidder. The play garden is an invaluable part of many neighborhood children’s childhood experiences. NGT has helped to us to make a small community garden into a beautiful, safe, and useful space for neighbors and visitors to enjoy.” — Julius Rivera, Collins Smith Barrick Play Garden |
