Starting in the fall of 2019, several RIGC Executive Board members began to work on updating a mission or purpose statement to describe our community garden. Tim Wong, Director, also took over work on updating our map with plot numbers and first names since the prior map software had become outdated.
For the mission or purpose statement, we discussed our main focus-gardening- as well as the importance of our composting program that has developed so well in recent years. We discussed RIGC's current role supporting nature and providing a beautiful outdoor space to visitors as well as the outreach we provide when possible as an all volunteer non-profit in the community.
RIGC may currently be one of the oldest non-profit organizations on Roosevelt Island! This year at our Board meetings, we discussed, finalized, and voted on these two items which are found below and are also found on the Home and About pages of our website.
