About

Yonkers Conservation Gardens are dedicated to our city’s natural spaces, large and small… and the people who care for them.

Simply register your garden (no garden too small), and watch your inbox for invitations to join in upcoming events, conservation efforts, special projects, and opportunities for accreditation and recognition.

Along the way, we may challenge you to:

  • learn about native plant communities suited to your property,
  • help replant our citywide tree canopy,
  • earn Arboretum accreditation,
  • create a Special Collection in your garden,
  • adopt a hand-crafted bee hotel made by a local student,
  • participate in a pollinator pathway effort,
  • enter a horticultural design contest…

…or simply access and enjoy our educational web content and events.
