Summary

This is the 8th year the Russo Park group has participated in the Greenspace program. The park is the site of the Wooster Square Farmers' Market and enjoyed by visitors from all over New Haven. This year the group focused on stewardship of the park and restored the area by weeding and mulching the established flower beds. The group's workdays moved from Saturdays to Tuesdays.
