New Trees in Goodwin Park

On Saturday, October 18, Friends of Goodwin Park joined Knox, Inc. and volunteers from Rise Up Hartford, Grace Academy and Manchester Community College to plant 23 new trees in the park. In addition, the volunteers tended to flower beds, pulling weeds, transplanting cone flowers at Maple Ave. and adding mulch to all the beds. 
You will see the results now as you stroll through the park and will be greeted in the spring with flowering dogwood and magnolia trees.
 Knox, Inc. welcomed us with breakfast, and provided a delicious lunch with live music.
Our sincere thanks to Knox, Inc. and volunteers from Rise Up Hartford, Grace Academy and Manchester Community College.
