Volunteers are needed to help the Canal Corporation plant a native pollinator garden in Brockport’s Corbett Park on Saturday, June 3, between the hours of 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. The NY Power Authority’s Sustainability Team and Reimagine the Canals initiative will provide all needed planting supplies.
Pollinators sustain the healthy ecosystems that purify our air and clean our water. The garden has been designed by Cornell Cooperative Extension Master Gardener Volunteers and includes native, pollinator-friendly plants that are approved by the Canal Corporation Earthen Embankment Integrity Program.
Those interested in participating are asked to email sustainability@nypa.gov with their name(s) and t-shirt size(s) by May 15 to receive a free lunch and t-shirt. Families are welcome. Meet directly in front of Corbett Park on the day of the event, wear planting-friendly clothes and shoes and bring a reusable water bottle for refills.
