On Monday, June 4th, students from Friends Seminary High School arrived bright and early to voluntarily clean up our Sutton Place Parks. There were 21 students, 4 teachers, along with 4 Conservancy volunteers who led the group.
The students divided into two teams: 4 took on trimming the wisteria at park 58 and pruned the climbing roses at Park 57. Another group worked in Park 57, the promenade area and Park 56 to get rid of the wild morning glory vines that were choking out a planting area.
Afterward the group enjoyed a picnic lunch in the park followed by a short, silent meeting in the Quaker Friends tradition.
The Conservancy welcomes other groups who want to help maintain our parks. Please contact Laura Heckman, Executive Director.(laura@suttonplaceparks.org).
