Floral Park Centennial Gardens

New hours: 11am to 4pm

Met with some Centennial Garden people for a photo op. & a meeting. Great to be outdoors. And yes, we all wore face masks. Our Centennial Gardens calendar will be coming out soon. Check here for more details & how to order. It’s one of our ways to help raise funds for the garden. We missed having our garden party this spring & hope to do more fun events next year.

November 14th....please!

New hours after daylight saving time this weekend: 11am to 4pm. Season closure at end of November.

Congratulations to Jacqueline Kelly who earned her Girl Scout Gold Award. Jacqueline created a Monarch Butterfly Habitat because monarch butterflies are endangered in the United States. They are important pollinators and support our ecosystem. Thank you, Jacqueline, for this enriching project.

Don't you just love fall?

The Children's Gardening program is back in bloom at Centennial Gardens. Last week, the wee gardeners learned the parts of a plant and planted flowers in two gardening beds by Annie's House. Thank you, Ms. Laura!
