That’s no pom-pom but it’s still time to cheer - allium season is here! These poofy, pollen-rich flowers are blooming in gardens and feeding hungry pollinators across NYC.

'moooommmm can we go to bag end?' 'we literally have the shire at home'

But really, we do! Step into Fort Tryon Park and live your fantasy novel dreams, surrounded by the gardens in full bloom.

Adam Ganser's New York City Council testimony called out the hypocrisy in the mayor's stated commitment to Parks/subsequent disinvestment:

“This budget will reduce NYC Parks by 700 jobs, resulting in an even more depleted agency & exacerbating inequities Mayor Eric Adams has sought to solve.”

#PlayFair rallied at City Hall before today's New York City Council hearing to demand investment in NYC Parks and the reversal of Mayor Eric Adams's devastating proposed cuts.

Thanks to an Elmhurst neighbor who contacted us about hateful anti-Semitic & anti-Black graffiti on the steps at Moore Homestead Park. We flagged for urgent cover up by NYC Parks, & we'll ensure a full cleaning at a later date.

Thank you to the NYC Parks Department (NYC Parks) for replacing the tattered and torn flags at Centerville Playground in Ozone Park! After a constituent called our office (@SenJoeAddabbo) we reached out to our contacts. Thanks for the fast turn-around!

101 years ago today, the Coney Island Boardwalk officially opened. Ever since, NYC's most famous playground has been a destination for food, fun, & beach views. While the beach may not be open just yet, the boardwalk is open year-round—come by this week to celebrate its birthday!

Dolphins were reportedly spotted in the Bronx River this week.

Alexandra Silver of Mayor Eric Adams office confirmed nychealthy is on this one. Pics and video sent as well as the report taken by NYC Parks officers. Dying to hear what their vet has to say this time.

On Friday, May 24, we will show “Barbie” at Lawrence Virgilio Playground with NYC Parks for our second movie night of the season.

The movie will begin around sunset. At 7:30, kids will have the chance to play soccer with our partners at Soccer Shots. See our flyer for more info.
