1,500 yellow daffodils will greet visitors to Dorchester Park next spring. Provided by the Boston Parks Commission, they were planted by the Dorchester Park Association and Cedar Grove Gardens staff at the Adams Street and Dorchester Avenue entrances.
I just wanted to take a quick moment to thank you all so much for such a successful day! It was really great to be riding around Dorchester seeing everyone out and about genuinely caring about how our neighborhood looks! South Dorchester alone saw some 450 volunteers across 17 different sites. Could anyone think of a better way to spend such a beautiful Saturday (and Friday) than meeting with old and new friends and helping each other make the City look awesome?

Thank you to the volunteers from Boston Cares and Northeastern University for their enthusiasm and hard work at Dorchester Park on Saturday, October 15th. They removed litter and trimmed undergrowth across from the playground in an area dotted with large rocks often used for reading, picnicking or playing. They also removed many pounds of broken glass from around the nearby large rocks which children love to climb.
