Thank you to the Parks Department for the expedient installation of our new athletic field in time for our community to enjoy a full fall season. Everyone is thrilled to be playing on the new and improved field. To ensure the turf’s endurance we ask that no pets, no strollers and no chairs are allowed the athletic field at anytime. We greatly appreciate your consideration.

Our beloved Gardener II/ Horticulturist Anil Chandrakumar has received a very well deserved promotion as Brooklyn’s Horticulturist Supervisor!! We are deeply grateful for the wonderful time we’ve had working with Anil.  We appreciate everything he brought to the community and the park enriching both immensely.  We’re very happy for Anil and relieved that we’ll still be working together although in a different capacity.  Our efforts to nurture nature will keep Anil connected to our community for sure!

Welcome Jessica Kulig!  Congratulations on your new appointment as Gardener in Cadman Plaza Park and beyond.   The Conservancy welcomes you with open arms and we’re looking forward to a productive fall together. Earlier this month, Jessica joined Anil and the Conservancy hosting Poly Prep’s Junior class’s first day of school, planting 500 native plants in our pollinator garden.   

Good morning all!

We’ll restart the regular Wednesday sessions tomorrow 9/27.Let’s meet at 9:30am at the Juneteenth Garden.

Looking forward to working with you!

Best,

Jessica Kulig
