Brooklyn Grange, City farm and rooftop garden in Brooklyn, US
Brooklyn Grange is a network of rooftop farms across the city that grow vegetables, herbs, and other foods year-round. The sites feature growing beds, composting areas, and beehives integrated into their operations.
The first rooftop farm opened in 2010 and gradually expanded to multiple locations across Brooklyn. What began as a single site has grown into a significant urban farming operation.
The rooftop serves as a gathering place where visitors learn about growing food in the city and sustainable farming practices. Workshops and community activities show how urban agriculture connects people to their food sources.
Visitors can take guided tours, purchase fresh produce directly, and join seasonal activities throughout the year. Checking ahead about availability and directions to each location helps plan the visit.
The farms host multiple beehives that produce local honey while playing a key role in pollinating plants across the city. These bees are an important part of the urban ecosystem that many visitors do not expect to find.
