Event Details
Join us for a hands‑in‑the‑soil adventure as we celebrate Earth Day with our favorite garden friends — seedlings, sunshine, and of course… worms! Help the baby plants that our students seeded in their science classes find their forever homes as we gently move seedlings into our cozy garden beds. Then gently guide our garden's wiggliest helpers into rich, cozy soil. Finally, take a break next to our daffodil blossoms with a warm cup of tea and a crunchy biscuit. Every small hand can make a big difference as we look forward to a bountiful June harvest!
In case of rain, the event will be held the next morning on Sunday, April 26 from 9am to noon.
This is a free PTA event and open to friends and families of the PS199 community. RSVP and drop in anytime. Stay as long as you wish before closing time. Remember to dress accordingly for gardening. Bring garden gloves if you have them. Gardening tools will be provided by the PTA - or bring your own!
This is not a drop-off event. All children must be supervised by an adult. Please review Garden Policies before your visit. Contact Alfred Huang or Matthew Williams via Konstella or email at garden@ps199pta.org for any questions.
