@sinituulia Wildflower seed pod picker. I have a little experience in that, although it's not among the current volunteer opportunities because that happens in Autumn.
Registered for two beach grass prep activities next week. The Native Plant Center is a very cool place!
I was late to pick my daughter up from camp because #NYCParks closed a huge portion of Corona-Meadows Flushing Park. Apparently for some kind of music festival. There was, of course, no bike detour. The area has highways running through it, and the bridges over the highways are cordoned off. How do you get to #QueensZoo? Why, just take this other pedestrian bridge (which has gates blocking cargo bikes)!
Just constant middle fingers to #BikeNYC in central queens from Eric Adams' administration.
