Keeping New York City's parks clean and Horticulture have many benefits for the city and its residents, including:
Health
Parks can improve mental and physical health, and can help people stay safe from heat in the summer.
Safety
Clean and safe parks can deter crime and support high levels of public use.
Environment
Trees produce oxygen through photosynthesis and absorb pollutants from the air, which can improve air quality. Parks can also help cities stay cooler and provide habitats for wildlife.
Sustainability
NYC Parks is working to make the city more resilient to climate change by restoring and protecting greenspaces. For example, the department has installed new trash cans that are designed to prevent overflow and rat access, and has also made spray showers low-flow to save water.
It's my park season and Roc-A-Natural Cultural Foundation Inc has once again partnered with Partnerships for Parks for another TappenTeers at Work Park Clean-up & Horticulture at Tappen Park, Bay Street, between Water and Canal Streets, Staten Island, NY 10304 on Saturday, July 27, 2024 from 10am to 1pm.
