La Casita Verde is a GreenThumb NYC Parks community garden and was established in November 2013. The founding members came together to transform a 40+ year derelict lot into a space for people in the community and beyond to participate in the soilfoodweb (or the system that sustains our body and environment). Members and visitors will learn how to make rich soil, grow healthy food, use the values of permaculture — all through the union of community, art, science and fun.

The design that DSGN AGNC provided the team from La Casita Verde uses a flexible spatial framework for growth.
