Celebrate Earth Day with us on Saturday, April 20th from 10am-12pm.
Join us on Saturday, March 23 for our first Community Volunteer Day of 2024!
Join us for one last community volunteer day this year on Saturday, November 18th, from 10am-noon.
We have two projects in mind for that day, depending on how many volunteers we get. The first is planting several hundred bulbs (thank you May in Montclair!) at various spots throughout the park.
The second project is to continue clearing out brush and weeds from around the old pond side and then to extend our weed control efforts in that area, with an eye for planting in the Spring.
Participate in all or part of the event. Sign up for this event by emailing us at volunteer@brookdalepark.org. We look forward to seeing you!
This project plan for this day is to tend and beautify playground wall planting bed. Note that our Project Plans are subject to change pending volunteer attendance and park needs.
A great way to give back, make some new friends and learn more about Brookdale Park. All ages and skills are welcome and community service hours are available. We provide tools, work gloves, training and fun!

Our focus is on projects that restore and enhance Brookdale Park's Olmsted Brothers' Master Plan while keeping the community’s needs and sustainability top of mind. We are an all-volunteer group supported by donations.
