Once again NYC Partnerships for Parks has designated this coming Sunday October 22nd as:
It's My Park Day in Isham Park.
Please come help out from 9:00am to 12 noon to assist with weeding and mulching the gardens all around the park for the winter. We will also transfer a few shrubs to fill in some gaps and plant some bulbs.
Meet VIP at the rose garden entrance on the Park Terrace East traffic circle near the newly delivered mulch pile pictured above.
Likely also watering!
9:00 to 11:30 am
this Saturday May 20th
Hoping for predicted rain overnight later that night!
The pink full moon is today: Thursday April 6, 2023 and Isham Park is pulling out the stops for spring. The terrace center, wall capstones, and the benches in the Isham family memorial are pink granite, likely derived from Cobalt, Connecticutt, where Julia Isham and her husband Henry Osborne Taylor lived after they married.
To all those who volunteered for It's My Park Day last October and those who later helped plant the generous helping of bulbs the Partnership for Parks brought to us that day, Thank you!
Friday April 15th begins Passover week. Tomorrow is also Good Friday. Saturday is the Pink full moon. Sunday is Easter.
Today, the afternoon brought a sudden storm, with a gentle but thorough rain.
April showers bring May flowers. This well-worn phrase is said to mean in a general sense: good will follow adversity. This year it has a special significance.
