Hi..I’m new to Fort Greene We moved in about 3 weeks ago. We’ve got a garden backyard space that’s hardly a garden, and really a 400 sq ft dusty dirt patch.

It doesn’t get much sun, which is why I’m guessing there’s no grass back there, but what can I do to make it decent without full-on landscaping?

Should I talk to my landlord first…or should I do things that can be ultimately ‘portable’ and taken with us, if we move?

And what kinds of low cost options are there? I lived in Manhattan for 25 years..and the ‘yard’ is foreign territory lolololol

Help?
