April Showers may bring May Flowers, but it also brings a lot of trash to Bartram's Garden, located at 5400 Lindbergh Blvd. Help us keep the nation's oldest living botanical garden and our local waterways a little cleaner on May 1st.
Despite Bartram's Garden's natural splendor, it is only 15 minutes away from the hustle and bustle of Center City. Its marshes and wooded trails get littered with pieces of Styrofoam, plastic bottles, clothing, food wrappers and some weird items like a 1980s cell phone, half a canoe, and a "missed connection� love note.
Our 'Tuesdays on the River' will take place on the first Tuesday of the month (June 5th, July 3rd, August 7th, September 4th and October 2nd). Our Bartram's volunteers get more than just satisfaction for a job well done: each cleanup comes with a free, pre-cleanup cookout at 5 pm and free passes to enjoy Bartram's Garden's events. Volunteers who attend three UBB Bartram's Garden cleanups this summer qualify for a free Bartram's Garden membership.
