Team Leaders of @WholeFoods’ Williamsburg store

Team Leaders of @WholeFoods’ Williamsburg store held their monthly meeting at @navalcemetery to celebrate #EarthDay. We kicked off the afternoon with a tour of the space, highlighting the history of the site and the native pollinators in bloom for spring. @WholeFoods’ Williamsburg also donated snacks and drinks in-kind to our Earth Month Volunteer Celebration. Thank you to @WholeFoods’ Williamsburg for keeping our volunteers properly fueled for Earth Month! We hope you visit us again soon.

Shout out to @nycferry for keeping the greenway clean and green this #EarthDay !Volunteers aerated tree pits, weeded invasives, and picked up litter along the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway on Flushing Ave and Williamsburg West Street. We ended the day with a tour at the @navalcemeterylandscape - what a way to celebrate Brooklyn’s greenspaces for Earth Day. Thank you so much for your support, @nycferry! If you're interested in a corporate volunteer/stewardship session, get in touch with BGI's Development Director, Sam - sbrownbeatty@brooklyngreenway.org.

🚲✨ Who wants better greenway connections in #coneyisland and #sheepsheadbay ? Show of hands 🙋🏽‍♀️ Our 2024 BGI Brooklyn Greenway User Study found that improving connections to surrounding neighborhoods and adding more access points would get more people out riding and enjoying the greenway! Better access = more joy, more rides, and stronger community connections. Let’s make it happen! 🌿💡#bikenyc #walknyc #greenways4nyc
