Friends of Brook Park is a leading community-based environmental organization in the South, South Bronx. We engage youth and adults in organic gardening, Community Supported Agriculture and arts and indigenous cultural events and activities that convey a deep respect for the Natural world. In addition we are strong advocates for environmental justice, waterfront access and green space development.
We lead shore clean-ups and offer canoe and kayak introductions to the Harlem River and Bronx Kill and conduct eco-education tours as far north as the Hudson River and to southern end of Randall’s island and beyond. We work with numerous local organizations and schools and have helped launch the harlem River Working Group.
