Happy Spring!
We are so excited to announce a new project we have been working on with Giffen Elementary School in Albany.
With help from students at Giffen Elementary, we will be planting nine trees in celebration of Arbor Day on Tuesday, April 30. New York Urban Orchards (NYUO) will maintain this orchard and provide educational signage about the historical, cultural and environmental significance that apple trees play in the South End of Albany.
We need your help to cover the costs of the apple trees and maintenance of the orchard. Please help us reach our goal. We look forward to sharing more information and research about the roles apple trees played in the South End of Albany with you soon.
You may make your donation through paypal (https://paypal.me/giffenelmorchard?locale.x=en_US), or donate through the Facebook button below.
Checks made out to New York Urban Orchards Inc can be mailed to 22 Park Row Chatham, NY 12037
Take a stroll through Albany's Historic Washington Park. Near the lake house you will find 9 dwarf apple trees planted in April 2018. Golden Russet, Goldrush, Harrison, Idared, Otterson Crab, Roxbury Russet, Winecrisp and Winesap apple trees take up the small hillside. We invite the community to pick the apples and enjoy some time in their local urban apple orchard.
Leave a lasting impression at an urban apple orchard. Donations may be made for new or existing trees in our gardens. A donor recognition plaque is included with each donation. Please email nyurbanorchards@gmail.com for more information and pricing.
