Friends of Pelham Parkway Event

Friends of Pelham Parkway Clean Up, Weed, Mulch, and Plant Flowers


  It was a beautiful Saturday morning as twenty-five volunteers showed up to clean, remove weeds, mulch, and plant flowers at the Wallace Avenue walkway of North Pelham Parkway. The event was hosted by the Friends of Pelham Parkway. 

Police Officer Andino from the 49th Precinct with her two Explorers Jadene Sanchez and Kayleen Pimentel do some weeding.


 Residents showed they care about the area where they live. Police Officer Andino brought two Explorers from the 49th Precinct to help, and they joined the other volunteers.

Volunteers fill buckets with mulch to be placed around the trees.

People broke up into groups that picked up papers and trash, those who pulled out weeds, others who filled buckets with mulch to place around the trees, and some who planted flowers.

Flowers are being planted in a garden.


Afterwards all posed for a group photo, and enjoyed a job well done.
