ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「Governors Island had a charming teaching farm that was a field trip destination. Now it’s producing hundreds of pounds of fresh produce every week. This was supposed to be the busiest summer yet for Governors Island, a semi-abandoned isle off the southern tip of Manhattan. After 15 years of careful redevelopment, it had blossomed into a lush day-trip destination. There were plans for a new tram, ferries designed to shuttle in a thousand people at a time and field trips for hundreds of city children to scramble around a one-acre teaching garden on the island’s southeastern shore. Then the city shut down. So with the field trips canceled, the team that manages the land converted it — with its fruit trees and its 50-foot demonstration farm rows — into a victory garden for New York City. Other organizations have been eager to work with the farm, like the Black Feminist Project in the southeastern Bronx. Since June, the group has been taking deliveries every other week from the farm — 400-pound parcels with red-leaf lettuce, hand-tied sprays of basil, freshly picked eggplant. All of it goes to the free or low-cost coronavirus relief food boxes the group has been preparing for families in the area. Tap the link in our bio to read more about NYC’s own victory garden.
