A serene moment in Brust Park: an Eastern Bluebird perched gracefully, adding a splash of color to the greenery. Nature's simple pleasures are the most profound.

1 minute after we finished—boom, “here’s your form.”
Not listed on the site.
Tools delayed.
But we still showed up and made it count.
Just a guy and his rake doing what he can.

You don’t need a big crew to make a big impact.
Just time, sweat, and care.
Brust Park’s getting its love back, one patch at a time.

Not bad for a couple people and a few tools that finally showed up halfway through.
This wasn’t about making a statement—
it was about making progress.

No sign. No tools. No tarp.
No problem. I showed up anyway.
Sometimes the work starts before the support does.

🌿 Sad to share that the Stewards of #BrustPark have ceased operations. While I’ve stayed active sharing my love for this beautiful #Bronx green space, I’m now working with Partnership 4 Parks and others to form a new #FriendsOfBrustPark group. Stay tuned for updates on how to help! 🌳💚 brustpark.org
