Spring

It’s My Park Day at Washington Market Park

May 17, 2019 by Teresa Wang

It's My Park Day at Washington Market Park

 

Spring is finally here! Are you interested in teaching your kids about gardening and conservation? Take advantage It’s Our Park Day! Stop by Washington Market Park and meet gardener Richie who will instruct children and adults on how to properly plant bulbs, flowers, and work the soil depending on what is needed within the park. The park will provide children’s gardening gloves and trowels, but if you have your own please bring them along.

New York City’s Department of Parks and Recreation asks city residents to come out twice a year to support their neighborhood park – once in the fall and once in the spring. At Washington Market, the day is used to teach children about gardening, and enlist their help in planting thousands of bulbs in the fall and annuals in the spring. For children who like to get their hands dirty, this is the event for them! 

Date: Saturday, May 18th 

Time: 11:00 am – 12:00 pm 

Location: 199 Chambers Street 

Ages: All ages welcome

Fee: Free to participate

Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 yea Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 years of calling NYC home. A year later, our family is on a crazy career adventure in Miami, with a lot of unknowns. 

But, we do know that we only get one life to live and jumping in feet first is the only way to live life to the fullest, at least in our minds 😂. 

We are already in love with the Miami weather, the happy people, the gorgeous beaches 🏝 and the day tripping way of life. We arrived in FL w a suitcase each and a mask 😷. Happy that we are surrounded by mask-wearers. Wasn’t sure what to expect. But, we will be back in NYC this summer. Lots of decisions to make between now and then. But also lots of fun and exploring over the next few months. 

The silver lining of the Covid world we live in is remote learning allows us to travel and say yes to new beginnings. Stay tuned for updates on the next chapter for our website, too.
