On August 4th, The Mission Continues Bronx is deploying back to the South Bronx with Guggenheim Partners to Crotona Park. Park managers are looking to secure a bright future for the park by completing much-needed maintenance on newly planted trees and cleaning up the surrounding area to create a more beautiful place for the community to call their own. The work that we do on August 4th will ensure that there is a healthy canopy of native trees 20-30 years from now. Projects will include: - Weeding, mulching, and build a fence around newly planted trees (3-4 months old) - Weeding and mulching young trees (1-3 yrs old) - Weeding and edging curbs along pathways - Turning soil, weeding, mulching, and building wire fencing around a garden near the bathhouse - Garden restoration by Park's entrance See you there!
