A Beautiful Morning of Daffodil Planting in Cadman Plaza Park!
On Saturday, October 24th, the Cadman Park Conservancy hosted our Annual Daffodil Planting as part of New Yorkers for Parks’ 25th Anniversary of The Daffodil Project.
It was a gorgeous autumn morning, and Juneteenth Grove was filled with wonderful energy, enthusiasm, and community spirit! Our youngest volunteers, alongside their parents, grandparents and caregivers planted bulbs along the edges of our circular garden beds, while older student volunteers and adults worked in the rectangular planting areas in Juneteenth Grove. It was a joy to see so many people of all ages come together to help make our park even more beautiful. We had a wonderful time planting together.
🌻 Thank You, Volunteers!

🌼 Gardening Brings People Together! One of our volunteers even recruited a tourist visiting from Arizona, who was strolling through the park, to lend a hand with the digging—a wonderful example of community spirit!
