The Roosevelt Island Garden Club (RIGC) is a diverse community of gardening enthusiasts who work together to beautify our Roosevelt Island home, to increase gardening knowledge, and to impart an appreciation for nature, and environmental stewardship among our members and our neighbors.

The Roosevelt Island Garden Club Community Garden is located on Roosevelt Island in New York City between the Octagon soccer field and the Pony baseball field. The garden entrance is across from the Fire Department at 750 Main St.

The purpose of the RIGC is listed above in our mission statement.  RIGC members and associates work together as volunteers on maintenance and upkeep of the facility, gardening side by side in this 132 plot community space.

The Roosevelt Island Garden Club does not and shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion (creed), gender, gender expression, age, national origin (ancestry), disability, marital status, sexual orientation, or military status, in any of its activities or operations. The Roosevelt Island Garden club is a non-profit, volunteer organization for community gardening.
