The Greenest Block in Brooklyn competition is celebrating its 30th year. The contest, run by the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, asks residential blocks, commercial blocks, and community gardens to work together to improve their greenspace. Awards are handed out for Best Street Tree Beds, Best Window Box, Best Community Garden Streetscape, and more. Applications are open through May. Jibreel Cooper, community program manager at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden discusses the competition. Plus, Shauna Moore, director of horticulture at the BBG, provides tips for making your block greener, and listeners share how they have improved the greenery on their own block.
