About this Event
Lend a helping hand to care for Penny Bridge, a historic pocket park where Newtown Creek Alliance has been doing work for almost 10 years.
This event will include:
- Clearing brush and weeds along pathways
- Cleaning trash and debris
- Planting ferns, native shade plants, and seeds
We will provide gloves, tools, safety vests, and guidance on how to safely complete our tasks for the day. Before the event, registrants are required to complete a liability waiver and photo consent form (Adult form here and Minor form here).
Meetup Location: We will be meeting at Penny Bridge Park at the Eastern terminus of Meeker Avenue in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, at 10 AM.
Plan ahead for the event: Please wear weather-appropriate clothes, sturdy shoes, and bring your own water bottle and sunscreen if need be. We will have water and snacks on hand for volunteers. There are no bathrooms on site. If you are unable to attend, we ask you to please release your spot at least one day in advance.
