As we continue to monitor the impact of COVID-19 (coronavirus), the health and well-being of our community is our highest priority. The Old Stone House is open for walk in visitation for up to 10 people at a time Friday – Sunday from Noon – 4 pm. If we have 10 visitors when you arrive, please wait to enter the museum. Masks and hand sanitizer are required due to the high percentage of visitors under the age of 12 who are largely unvaccinated – OSH will provide them, so you can fully enjoy the exhibit.
If you need a mask, we have some available – just call 718-768-3195, or find one of our Parks’ staff members.
Sam Lewis, OSH’s Director of Gardens, works with volunteers on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. OSH Compost Coordinator Angela Lombardo is accepting compost members and drop-offs during the Sunday Farmer’s market. If you’re interested in joining the crew, or becoming a compost member, email info@theoldstonehouse.org. Watch our garden video series and learn more about the gardens and what you can look forward to here.
We are also accepting permit requests for the North Garden, the Game Tables, and the 5th Avenue Garden. Apply on-line. We will begin hosting indoor events in September, and are taking reservations now.
We will continue to monitor information from NYC Parks, the Center for Disease Control, the New York City Department of Health, and the New York State Department of Health, and will provide ongoing updates as necessary.
Please call us at 718-768-3195 or email us at info@theoldstonehouse.org if you have any questions. We appreciate our community so much, and hope you can find joy in the gardens and the park. Kindest regards from all of us at OSH.
