On October 16, 2024, the Village of Lansing, working with Dr. William Miller (Cornell College of Agriculture and Life Sciences) and Luke Thomas (tractor driver), planted 10,000 flower bulbs in four municipal parks:
Philip Dankert Park – 2000 bulbs
Shannon Park – 2000 bulbs
Ned Hickey Park – 1500 bulbs
Marian Hartill Park – 4500 bulbs
The bulbs were a “Large Flowering Mixture” from ADR Bulbs in Chester, NY.
We want to thank our Village assistants –
DPW crew: John Courtney, Chris Zavaski, and Nick Dean
Carolyn Greenwald, Deborah Dawson, and Ronny Hardaway
The Village of Lansing thanks Janine Willis and the Cornell Cooperative Extension’s Community Beautification Program for their matching grant toward purchasing the flowering bulbs.
