DAFFODIL DAY IN KENSINGTON

PICK UP A SHOVEL AND MAKE KENSINGTON BEAUTIFUL!
WATCH CHURCH AVENUE BLOOM!



Sunday, October 18th, is Daffodil Day in Kensington.

Join your neighbors as we plant daffodil bulbs on Church Avenue and its side streets. In the spring, watch the flowers that we planted bloom!

From 9:00 a.m. to noon
, volunteers will

  • loosen soil in tree pits
  • plant daffodil bulbs
  • go to Connie's Cafe for free coffee and a muffin!
Wear clothing and shoes that you don't mind getting some dirt on. If you can, bring
  • a hand cultivator
  • a trowel
  • a bulb borer
  • anything else that's useful for digging and planting
  • extra gardening tools, if you have them, for your neighbors to use.
We'll meet at 9:00 a.m. in front of Astoria Federal Savings, at the corner of Church and McDonald avenues.

Connie, the owner of Connie's Cafe (corner of Church Avenue and E. 5th Street), has graciously agreed to donate coffee and muffins for the volunteers.

This neighborhood event is sponsored by KARMABrooklyn (Kensington Area Resident/Merchant Alliance) and WKAG (West Kensington Action Group).
