MulchFest!
On Sunday, the Cadman Park Conservancy celebrated Earth Day by hosting a Mulchfest event. Volunteers mulched all of the flower beds in Juneteenth Grove, and the 19 flowering trees (Cercis canadesis - Eastern rosebud) planted honoring the 19th, and all of tree beds surrounding the athletic field.
Special thanks to Packer Collegiate High School Junior, Nate Price for his help, leadership and to the incredible Packer High School team! to Juan Marin from St Francis College who probably distributed one pile of mulch by himself! And to all of St Francis volunteers; and The Service Collective volunteers making our Mulchfest an amazing success.

Join the Cadman Park Conservancy and The Service Collective volunteers to celebrate Earth Day. Our Mulchfest event is always fun, spreading mulch in our flowerbeds to ensure best protection and growth during the spring and summer months. We need your help! Gloves and supplies provided. This is a family friendly event!
