BQLT Gardens Hosting City of Forest Day Events:
Street Tree Pruning Event @ Q Gardens on Sat. Oct. 26th 11am-2pm at 58 E. 18th St., Flatbush, Brooklyn 11226
Pruning the street trees in the Flatbush neighborhood surrounding the garden, along Church Ave and its surrounding streets. Members of our garden who are Citizen Pruners will lead the event and advise. You can still participate in caring for our urban forest if you are not a Citizen Pruner! We’ll also be aerating the tree beds and laying down compost and mulch. All are welcome including children.
We are just a couple blocks from the A/C train. Come see our pollinator garden, check out our bees, and rest in the shade!
