It's the weekend we've been waiting for! Saturday we meet at 9am to beatify the Byram Park beach area. We will w**d and mulch the planting beds around the beach entrance. There are new perennials to plant and annuals to pop into the containers for seasonal color. The beach will be combed for trash.

Bring your gardening gloves and a water bottle; tools will be provided. The Byram Boat Club will host a free BBQ at 12pm with burgers and dogs on the grill.

Thank you for your service!

Thanks to the volunteers that helped in the transformation of the Byram Park Pollinator Garden last week. We sectioned the garden, ID’d existing perennials and w**ds, transplanted Chokeberry and Threadleaf Amsonia ‘Blue Star’ and w**ded.

The next volunteer date is Tuesday, June 18th from 9am-11am. The focus will be on transplanting and dividing existing perennials and planting new plants. We have a lot of donations from Greenwich Land Trust and Greenwich Parks and Rec to get in the ground.

Please let me know if you plan on attending. Plan on bringing gloves, spades, shovels, and a water bottle. If you do not have a park pass to access to gain entry to a Greenwich Park and/or need equipment, let me know.

Thanks and regards,
