As seen at the Orchard Alley Community Garden on Fourth Street between Avenue C and Avenue D:

A reader asked about this. We do not know! A joke? An inside joke? A commentary about the community garden?

Starbucks is not in expansion mode anyway. Since early 2020, Starbucks has permanently closed 44 of its 235 locations in Manhattan, per The New York Times.
