A community garden has served Jersey City residents for years. Here’s why a state agency shut it down. Updated Feb 25, 2021; Posted Feb 25, 2021 Last week, the New Jersey Schools Development Authority effectively shut down the Astor Place Community Garden in Jersey City, located right next to the Julia Barnes Elementary School, saying the garden was an unauthorized use of the land.

(Reena Rose Sibayan | The Jersey Journal) Facebook Share For more than a decade, the Astor Community Garden has been a hub for the McGinley Square neighborhood. The garden management and the nonprofit Black Interest Team Enterprise (BITE) operate a regular food pantry and hygiene product giveaway at the garden, which sits on a slice of land adjacent to Julia Barnes Elementary School. In cold weather, community leaders organize clothing donations, and the Jersey City health department has performed COVID-19 testing there.
