La Familia Verde has engaged in activities from voter registration to census education; but this year is different. 2020 with the emergence of COVID-19 we find ourselves in a pandemic which has devastated communities of color. Many have pre- existing disease that makes them more susceptible to the virus. We see people out of work, on long lines for food and having a hard time making ends meet. As a coalition of gardens we felt it was necessary to increase our production of food so that we can feed our community. We have partnered with other Bronx Community Gardens, Bronx Green Up and the Mary Mitchell Center to give fresh produce to our residents. We feel both healthy food and clean water are human right issues. In a country where we grow enough food and waste enough food no one should be hungry. Stop by our market, you will not be turned away
