Harlem Bespoke: The Dyckman Farmhouse Museum, Manhattan’s oldest farmhouse at the corner of 204th Street and Broadway, is launching its annual Growing Uptown program, providing residents with the tools they need to begin their own urban gardens. This program, which began in March 2020 to help those struggling through the pandemic, has empowered over 120 families in Upper Manhattan and the Bronx to grow fresh produce in their urban apartments to supplement daily food needs.
Weekly classes involve instructions on planting, harvesting, and cooking with the fresh produce. Participants will receive “Grow Kits” prepared by museum staff that includes soil, pots, seeds, and other tools necessary for a successful urban garden. Uptown residents who wish to participate can register until March 15th to join the program this season:
