Happy Earth Day!

In celebration of Earth Day, you’re invited to join us for a special campus event hosted by the Green Spaces Club in collaboration with the Campus Environment & Gardens Working Group.

Friday, April 24, 2026
1:30–3:30 PM
Voorhees Hall Rear Parking Lot

Come through, meet other students, faculty, and staff, and be part of making campus greener. We’ll be planting seeds, installing raised beds, and getting a composting system started—plus sharing ideas about sustainability and how we can take better care of our campus spaces.

Feel free to stop by at any point, whether you want to help out or just check it out and learn something new. Everyone’s welcome.

Updated Announcement!

Hello everyone!

We will still be meeting at 12:45 this Thursday. Due to the snow we will instead meet in the Voorhees Cafeteria/Lounge to chat about this semester’s events, meet new members, enjoy some snacks together and maybe plant something (indoors).

At the end, we’ll walk over to the Academic Building to show how to water some of the plants for anyone interested in volunteering.
Hope to see you there!

Please try to attend if you are interested in helping water the plants on campus as we are in great need of volunteers!

Meeting W 3/13 and Gathering W 3/20

Green Spaces/Freedom by Design: Gathering today and special event next Wednesday, 3/20 at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden

Come by V813 at 5:00 PM today, March 13th,  if you’re around. We’ll be discussing and finalizing the presentation for the President tomorrow, as well as putting several seedlings in larger containers, and planning out the coming weeks of activities and action. All the seeds we’ve planted have sprouted except a two stubborn  types of wildflowers, so we have about 18 types of plants growing (are there any photo bloggers out there? ). 

An important announcement: one special event is next Wednesday evening. It is a class at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden on preparing  gardens for spring. It begins at 5:30 PM on Wednesday March20th and ends at 8:00 PM (2.5 hours). Everyone is welcome but the number of seats are slightly limited so please RSVP. We can go earlier in the afternoon to see the botanic gardens – and the weather looks great for the 20th! 

Please RSVP for the BBG Class Preparing for Spring.
