Volunteer Landscaping @ Schmul Park

Join the Freshkills Park Alliance and NYC Parks Department for a volunteer day at Schmul Park and discover ways to get creative in our green spaces and support the bees! Ages 6+

We will work together to remove invasive species and litter, learn how to establish complex pollinator ecosystems, and highlight all the ways pollinators support our parks and our planet!

Students can receive credit for community service hours.

Plan Ahead: Wear long pants, close-toed shoes, and insect repellant. Also wear a hat and bring water and a snack. Tools, gloves, masks, and sanitizer will be provided. Do not attend if you are sick or have been exposed to COVID-19.

Transportation: The site is accessible by car or the S62 + S92 buses at the Victory Blvd/Wild Ave stop within a 5-10 minute walk. We will meet near the handball courts, in front of the comfort station.

Can't make it?  You can still help by promoting our volunteer projects with your friends and neighbors. We will also be adding more volunteer opportunities as the season continues.
