NYC Parks Queens Forest Park Greenhouse Open House,

Tri-State Events

Sponsored By: NYC Parks Queens Forest Park

For only one day every year, the Queens Greenhouse opens its doors to give New Yorkers a sneak peek inside. Seize this rare opportunity to learn about the diverse array of plants grown here.

Nestled among towering oak trees in Forest Park, the Queens Greenhouse and Nursery has served Parks for the past hundred years. Every year the Greenhouse staff grows over 200,000 herbaceous plants (annuals and perennials) through various methods of propagation. Gardeners use these plants to beautify the parks, playgrounds, beaches, and pools throughout Queens and Brooklyn.

Gardeners will provide visitors with information on the different species and how to care for them. Event is Free. No reservations are needed; however, Parks staff may limit the number of visitors allowed in each house at one time.
