2026 Greenspace Report
Rainbow Park is a calm retreat for the New Haven community. A walking path winds through flowers that are blooming all throughout the spring and summer and leads to a back patio with chairs where people can sit down and enjoy the peacefulness of the park. This summer, the volunteers added irises to the garden beds and worked to maintain the space by weeding, watering, and clearing out some overgrown plants. The group was also able to add stone dust and define the paths throughout the park. It was a great summer for this group, and neighbors from all around came out to thank the group for their work to keep Rainbow Park a beautiful and peaceful neighborhood gift.
