This week on a very special We Dig Plants Alice and Carmen sit down with Brooklyn borough president Marty Markowitz. The gang discussed designing, maintaining, and adding green spaces in Brooklyn; the over 300 community gardens in Brooklyn; roof gardens; waterfront parks; and of course the newly renovated Coney Island! Tune in for a look at how Brooklyn has blazed trails for community green spaces in the past, present, and future.
