The Ossining Organic Community Garden is located within the beautiful Cedar Lane Park in the Town of Ossining, New York. Our garden was designed with the concepts of accessibility, education, community and health. The primary benefit of our garden is the ability to grow healthy organic produce. The opportunity for neighbors to become acquainted and to work together is an added bonus.
