Bushwick City Farms on Instagram: "We’re LOCKED OUT of the garden community hub that so many people depend on. Please call your representatives today and every day to protect Bushwick City Farm from destruction & development! BCF has been a vital resource for free healthy food, education and respite since the neighborhood came together to transform it from a dangerous, abandoned dump of a lot into a safe, green public space. This space is ours, and it needs to stay ours. We’ve been asking the city to make it a permanent garden for nearly a decade. Because of their inaction we’re all at risk of losing it forever. We are calling on all our representatives to make good on their word to protect & support community resilience projects so that Bushwick City Farm will remain in the hands of the community, FOR the community. Starting TODAY, please call the offices of our city officials. Contact numbers and script are listed below. Demand that our farm, YOUR farm, continues to live.

I am a supporter of the community garden project Bushwick City Farm, which is located at Lewis Ave and Stockton St, in district 36. I am asking for [PERSON's] help in saving the farm, which is at risk of being shut down. The farm provides free healthy food to its neighbors and serves as a community hub and the loss of the space would be devastating. I'm calling on the city to remove the vacate order, work with the farm to resolve the fines on the property, and convert the lot into an official GreenThumb space.” #SaveBCF"
