We Plant NYC has been helping NYC breathe a little better since 1999. It all started with a vision, $200, a case of vases, fresh flowers from 28th street and some potted plants from Long Island.
We were on our way towards understanding the importance that flowers and plants have on our everyday lives, and how they can help enhance spaces for all to enjoy.

Kent Ave Ferry Park in Brooklyn
One of our proudest projects is over a 10-year span at Kent Ave Ferry Park in Brooklyn developing an era of public parks and waterfront amenities in collaboration with Developers, Landscape Architects and Senior Officials at the NYC Parks Departments we have created and restored a eco-conscious waterfront and public green space.
Not only do we install plants, we store, house and grow them on our 10 acre nursery in the Hudson Valley. We source and cultivate a variety of species zoned for the New York City area to ensure that the plants thrive and make your garden space look great!
We love what we do and we believe this small difference planting one rooftop at a time will leave a big difference for the next generation!
