Bissel Gardens 4525 Barnes Avenue, The Bronx, NY 10466

Welcome to Bissel Gardens, a vibrant community park located at 4525 Barnes Avenue, The Bronx, New York 10466. Nestled in the heart of the Bronx, Bissel Gardens serves as a green oasis where nature enthusiasts, families, and individuals come together to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors and engage in community activities.

Join us on Saturday, May 18, 2024, for a special Tree Planting Dedication with State Senator Jamaal T. Bailey. This event is a perfect opportunity to contribute to our community's green space and make a positive impact on the environment.

At Bissel Gardens, we are also excited to invite you to explore the fascinating world of beekeeping. Whether you're a seasoned beekeeper or a curious beginner, we welcome you to work with us. No experience is necessary, as we believe in learning together. If you have expertise, we'd love to learn from you and share your knowledge with our community.

We are proud to collaborate with the New York Restoration Project (NYRP), whose efforts last year greatly enhanced our park. We eagerly anticipate this year's harvest and are thrilled to announce that NYRP will return in September 2024 to continue their wonderful work with us.

Bissel Gardens is more than just a park; it's a place where stories begin, much like how the first book I ever read, "Donald Duck Sees South America," sparked my lifelong love for reading and adventure. We hope that your visit to Bissel Gardens will be just as inspiring and memorable.

Come visit us and be a part of our growing community. Whether you're planting trees, tending to bees, or simply enjoying the serene surroundings, there's always something to discover at Bissel Gardens. We look forward to welcoming you!
