Brooklyn Friends School and Public School 307 in Fort Greene joined forces in April on BFS’s Family Day of Service to beautify the front yard of PS 307, make centerpieces of colorful tissue flowers for the Brooklyn Monthly Meeting Community Dinner, and create holiday cards for homebound seniors through City Meals on Wheels. All activities took place at PS 307, our partner school with Horizons National, and more than one hundred people from both communities came together for the very first time to work side by side to transform PS 307's three unused garden plots into bright colored gardens with bushes, trees, perennials, and of course annuals. Plants, tools, mulch and fertilizer were donated by citywide green organizations, the custodial service of PS 307, friends from PS 307 and BFS, which also provided lunch for the volunteers. Special thanks to PS 307 organizers Chris Ferrara and Jennifer Rose as well as BFS organizers Julie Lam, Carla Precht and Stacey Laughter.
