Thanks to Deacon Davis’s continuous efforts to transform the space and significantly increase food production\, the bounty of the garden is shared biweekly with 35 + families from the community during the summer and fall seasons.\nThe garden is also a neighborhood destination through free family-friendly events such as cookouts\, harvest festivals\, and Earth Day Celebrations. Pollinator friends are also frequent visitors as the garden serves as a refuge for birds\, bees\, and butterflies. A volunteer garden committee\, community volunteers\, and organizations such as NEEC\, Habitat for Humanity\, and City Green\, have helped contribute to the success of the garden. \nNortheast Earth Coalition: \nThe Northeast Earth Coalition\, Inc.\, (NEEC) is a non-profit organization based in Montclair that works at the community level to protect the environment and promote local sustainability and food security.\nThe NEEC supports the work of community and environmental activists who give hope for a better future. Its Urban Growers program promotes local food production\, sustainability\, and community leadership. \nThe Northeast Earth Coalition is a longtime partner of the Green Acre Community Garden and is seeking to make connections between gardeners in Paterson\, Passaic and surrounding communities.\nI hope to see you there! \nTo buy tickets\, please follow this link https://www.eventbrite.com/e/neec-annual-farm-to-table-fundraiser-dinner-tickets-38109937850
