Thank you to the over 70 neighbors who showed up to help plant over 700 daffodil bulbs up and down Ocean Avenue (between Flatbush and Parkside) and around Parkside Plaza! We had amazing weather and lots of fun digging in the dirt together.
A special thank you to the event captains - Stanley, Paul, Remle, Crystal, Avellino, and Kim (the folks in the yellow and red aprons) - and a huge shout-out to Rudy and the Parkside Committee. We have some truly wonderful people in PLG!
Spring will be here before you know it and the daffodils will be in full bloom. It will also then be time for another planting event! Have a wonderful holiday season and winter, and we will see you in the spring.
Here's to flowers, trees, and greening PLG!
