This weekend, after over a year of planning, the gardeners of El Sol Brillante welcomed a new Crabapple Tree to the center of our garden.
Last year, the community voted to plant a new Crabapple Tree to replace the previous one which unfortunately died several years ago. For the last few months, gardeners have been preparing the central communal plot with a new curved wall. On Saturday, two of our garden elders traveled to Red Hook to retrieve the new tree. It rode to its new home by bicycle over the Brooklyn Bridge and finally went into the ground on Sunday Afternoon.
Here’s to many years of beauty and shade!
