Flatbush Gardener has a report about a 0.8-acre plot of land tucked away on Albemarle Road that’s going to be turned into a community garden. The property is on a site that was originally owned by Dean Alvord, the developer of Prospect Park South, and later by Israel Matz, the founder of Ex-Lax (Flatbush Gardener has thus provisionally dubbed the space Ex-Lax Gardens). A lot of the existing trees on the space need to be removed before vegetables can be cultivated, and community meetings are going to be held for people who are interested in getting involved with the garden. Are any readers involved with the project? What can you tell us about it?
