Sylvin Ashbrook

Sylvin joined the GGWNY team in June 2022 as the Land Stewardship Coordinator. In this role, Sylvin will be responsible for the support and growth of the Grassroots Gardens Land Trust. Sylvin has well over a decade of gardening experience and has an extensive background in native plant gardening.

Sylvin moved to Buffalo in 2018 with their husband and dog, two cats, a bird, a snake, and a frog. Sylvin looks forward to growing closer to the Buffalo community in this new role. They recently got their Masters in Sustainability Leadership from the University at Buffalo. When Sylvin is not gardening, they can be found either reading a book, enjoying their houseplants and two planted aquariums, taking a hike in the woods, or working on their art.
