NYCLeaves: Project LeafDrop is a
new – and growing – coalition of community gardeners and greening
partners in New York City looking to put fallen leaves to good use,
since the City will not be collecting for compost this year. 

This group will be coordinating leaf compost events from November 7th-22nd at gardens
citywide (18 in Brooklyn so far!), where neighbors can bring bags of
residential leaves, diverting them from environmentally costly trips to
out-of-state landfills, and using them to enrich our soil, our street
trees, and our neighborhoods.

The group is partnering with GreenThumb, CENYC, BK Farmyards, and others to
make this project a success.
