About this Event
Riverside Park Friends Group
The Greenway is for friends
We’re looking for Providence friends and neighbors to join us for our monthly garden club and Greenway Care days. Together, we’ll keep this beloved stretch of the Woonasquatucket River Greenway clean, green, and welcoming for everyone. Join a growing community of gardeners to learn from the River Ranger team, our Greenway maintenance crew. Together, Riverside Friends will help plant a new meadow in this park while learning about native plants, integrated pest management, and other skills you can apply in your home garden!
All ages are welcome, there is a great playground and field in the park, and you can wander over to the river’s edge by the blue fish ladder for FREE COMMUNITY PADDLE RIDES happening at the same time in the park on the summer dates (June 10, July 8, August 12).
The Riverside Park Friends Group is a great opportunity to meet neighbors and spend time with fellow river stewards.
