The Ballard Alliance flower planters returned this week and they are already brightening up the BIA with colorful blooms. 🌼This year, there are 26 planters installed on sidewalks and street corners, with each of them sponsored by a local business or resident.

💦We also welcome our new electric watering cart this year! 💦 The cart has a 65-gallon water storage capacity, which will allow us a more efficient and cost-effective way to water all the planters each week. This behemoth of a cart is need of a name, so get your creative caps on for a naming contest next month! Additionally, if you see this cart out in the wild, feel free to say hello to its driver, Sam, our flower planter assistant, who is watering the planters each week throughout the summer.

A special thanks to our friends at the Ballard Building for supplying the water and charging dock for our cart and Van Wingerden Greenhouses for supplying the gorgeous flowers.

And thank you to this year's planter sponsors for helping us create a more brilliant and vibrant neighborhood for locals and visitors to enjoy!
