As in all of New York City’s parks and playgrounds, there is no smoking on the grounds of 462 HCG.
Animals
Household pets are not allowed to roam free in the garden. All pets must be contained in a carrier or restrained on a leash and accompanied by their owner. Failure to comply will result in removal of animal from the premises and termination of membership.

The 462 Halsey has a composting area and community members are encouraged to bring their kitchen scraps to the garden to be composted — but please do NOT add materials to any of the compost bins unless you are a member of the compost team. There are labeled, designated containers to put food scraps and other compostable materials in.
