    The dates for our upcoming community work days are on the following Saturdays: June 23, July 21, August 18, September 15, and October 6.  These go from 9:00 until noon.  
     
    We continue with maintenance work days each Wednesday evening 6:00 until 8:00 and each Saturday morning 9:00 until noon.  

    Beginning in June, we will be working every Saturday 9:00 until 11:00 am through the summer.  These Saturdays will be for maintenance, where the work days will be for major projects. 

    The Beautify the North Tonawanda Botanical Garden is located at the botanical garden, 1825 Sweeney Street.  The garden is located on the banks of the Erie Canal near East Robinson Street.  The public is invited to join in winter cleanup of leaves and branches, tidying beds, clearing weeds, and planting. 


    The cleanup day marks the beginning of the best time of year to enjoy the North Tonawanda Botanical Garden, and the Beautify the Botanical Garden committee is working to bring the botanical garden back to its former beauty. 

    See our flyer for additional information.
