Team volunteers Jeff & Sabrina did some work today down at B-Y, planting some flowers supplied by the Trafford Board of Recreation in the planters and thru a generous donation by Sabrina herself, we added a bunch more perennials to the pollinator garden. Can’t wait until they fill in!

🌿 Help Make Trafford Bloom! Join the Beautification Team 🌸

Do you have a green thumb (or just a desire to help your community look its best)? The Trafford Beautification Team is looking for volunteers for the 2026 season!

Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or someone who doesn't mind picking up a few sticks to keep our parks clean, we would love to have you.

View our past projects and sign up today! https://yourtrafford.org/trafford-beautification-team/

How it works:

Your Own Space: Once assigned a garden or area in a Trafford public space, you have the power to work on it whenever it fits your schedule!

Support & Supplies: We have a budget for needs that arise, and while we use our own tools, I have specialty equipment you can borrow from time to time.

Pop-up Work Parties: We’ll host "flash" work sessions when the weather is nice and free time allows.

Community Impact: From mulching large beds to clearing new areas, we work together to make a visible difference in Trafford.

Join us for our Kick-off Meeting!
Come meet the team, learn how you can help, and help us do a quick "spring cleaning" of the park to get the season started.

📅 WHEN: This Sunday, April 26th

⏰ TIME: 6:30 PM

📍 WHERE: B-Y Park, Trafford

We also can sign off on volunteer hours for our high school volunteers!

Can’t volunteer but want to help? Donations are always welcome and greatly appreciated! As a subcommittee of the Trafford Economic & Community Development Corp - TECDC an IRS registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, your contributions help us buy plants, mulch, and supplies to keep Trafford beautiful.

Let’s get outside and make our town beautiful together! Have questions? Drop a comment below or send me a DM.

We’re so thankful to have gotten the opportunity to visit Trafford Elementary today for Operation: Trafford Sprouts! where we provided every class with the opportunity to learn about flowers and plant one of their own!
We brought in both Marigold and Zinnia seedlings and taught the kids how to transplant into a larger pot. From there they can watch them grow on their classroom windowsill and take them home around Mother’s Day.
We think the kids really enjoyed themselves, and hopefully as much as we did!
Thank you to Busy Beaver (Delmont) for the generous donation of the bug tubs and all the potting soil, and to Dr Horvat for donating the pots and popsicle sticks! Together, we all win!

Special thanks to our volunteers: Jeff, Shaelynn, Carly, Sherry!

Hey Trafford! Thank you to all who have signed up so far! With your help and with the folks from last year, we're looking to make a bigger difference this season. We're still looking for a few good men and women, the link to our website and to sign up to help is in the first comment. It can be a little or a lot, your choice. Together we can make Trafford a more beautiful place!
