THANK YOU!

A HUGE THANK YOU to the over 70 neighbors and friends who helped us beautify Ocean Avenue this past Saturday!  Walking up and down Ocean Avenue yesterday with my daughter and husband I was amazed at the transformation!  Today as it rains, I know that 300 flowers are happy in their new gardens, and that an array of neighbors are eager and ready (with new tools and watering supplies) to care for these flowers into the future.

Here's the day at a glance:

PLANTED:  50+ Tree Beds up and down Ocean Avenue
PLANTED:  300 Perennials (from Kings County Nursery)
SPREAD  60 bags of Compost (from DSNY via Build It Green! NYC)
SPREAD:  Countless bags of Mulch (from Prospect Park and the NYC Parks Department)
USED:  An array of gardening tools and supplies (from GreenThumbNYC)
CONSUMED:  Cider & Cider Donuts (from Williams Farm via Grand Army Plaza Farmers Market)
GIVEN AWAY:  Gardening gloves, supplies & tools (from MillionTreesNYC )
GIVEN AWAY:  Kids prizes (from Kings County Nursery)

Thanks again everyone!
