New Tree Bed Garden - Ocean & Parkside

Seeing the sad tree bed at the end of Ocean Avenue at the new Parkside Plaza this past week made me angry.  Regardless of our efforts, the tree bed was already in terrible shape only one month after our block-wide greening event.  My anger turned in to action and today there is a new tree bed garden.  I bumped in to Ms. Agnes, our Ocean Avenue Gardening Angel, and she helped me water the new plants and baby tree.  If you are down this way, give this garden some love!

The good news:  I smiled the entire time I walked from my home in 125 Ocean to this project as all of the other tree bed gardens look wonderful.  Thank you to everyone for looking after the Ocean Avenue trees and gardens!
