490 Farmers is the first community garden on state owned land in New York and the second-largest in the city of Rochester. 490 Farmers seeks to learn alongside Rochester residents and youth to build community, provide land access, and address food insecurity through urban agriculture. Guided by principles of mutual aid, we aim to steward a space where all feel welcome and integral to this mission, thereby pushing our city toward a more resilient and equitable future. Everyone is welcome for volunteer nights every Wednesday from 5-7PM! (Weather permitting.) Kids & family-geared volunteer nights are on the last Wednesday of each month.
