For more than a decade, Groundwork Hudson Valley has been a dynamic force in the lower Hudson Valley, making neighborhoods more livable and sustainable through on-the-ground environmental projects that directly involve local citizens. Join us on this behind-the-scenes exploration of three important Groundwork 
Hudson Valley initiatives: 

Philipse Manor Hall community gardens: Located on the grounds of historic Philipse Manor Hall, community gardens are an outdoor classroom for Groundwork Hudson Valley and an important source for vegetables sold in the Get Fresh Yonkers Farmers Market.

Saw Mill River Daylighting:  After being covered by a parking lot for decades, the Saw Mill River runs its course again. Restoring this river to the daylight has resulted in a vibrant community park and cultural destination in the center of Yonkers.

Science Barge: The Science Barge is a completely off the grid greenhouse laboratory for learning about food and energy systems. Our tour will conclude at this stunning floating structure, as we enjoy spectacular views of the Hudson River and conversation over refreshments.

*Please note: We will be walking to all three of these sites. Please choose appropriate footwear. Our tour will begin at Philipse Manor Hall, 29 Warburton Ave, Yonkers, NY, on the corner of Warburton and Dock Street.

Train: Take the Metro North to the Yonkers Station and stroll up the hill to Philipse Manor Hall.
Car: There is a public parking garage on Warburton Ave, just north of Philipse Manor Hall.
