Earth Day - April 20


On April 20th starting at 10:30am we will celebrate Earth Day and honor the life of Christina Yuna Lee by planting flowers.

From Chinatown Partnership’s Rosie Derong Li:
Task 1: Cleaning and picking up trash in and around the SDR Park.
Task 2: Planting
The volunteers will mainly plant flowers and plants on the side planting area in the SDR Park along Chrystie Street (roughly from Grand to Broome) and or while supplies last!
We will plant under the guidance of gardeners from SDR Park Community Coalition. Besides the plants provided by Jamil from the Parks Department, the Chinatown BID will purchase some compost soil and some plants as supplements.
We will gather in Sara Roosevelt Park. (near Grand Street’s Lion’s Gate entrance on the Chrystie Street side of the soccer field) near the Grand Street Subway Station, between the two lions next to the soccer field.
