Habitat
Plants cultivated as part of the NYBG African American Garden at the Edible Academy. This garden explores and celebrates Black culture through the lens of plants. It is a three-year project curated by Dr. Jessica B. Harris, America’s leading expert on African foodways. In 2024, the garden engages with the botanical legacies of the African Diaspora, including plants that are food staples, remedies, and sources of inspiration to Black culture in the United States, the Caribbean, and Central and South America, consisting of 8 sections and beds: Same Boat Different Stops, South America, Remedies, Caribbean & Central America, Creativity, North America, Economic, and Cane. Curated by Jessica B. Harris, implemented and cared for by James Boyer, Brooke Gibbard, Toby Adams, and NYBG Horticulture staff. The African American Garden was made possible with support from the Mellon Foundation.
