Storm Damage at the Garden

Posted in Around the Garden on October 31 2011, by Ann Rafalko

This weekend’s historic storm caused a large amount of severe damage to the Garden’s vast collection of trees and celebrated woodlands.

Blizzard-Damaged Trees at The New York Botanical Garden

Our crews are hard at work cleaning up the damage and working to save every tree they can. Simultaneously, we are busy getting ready for the beloved seasonal tradition of the Holiday Train Show. We hope that we will see you soon under the glittering dome of the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory.

Oh no! Do you have any volunteer opportunities to help clean up?

Please tell the crew we all collectively appreciate their hard work. Looking forward to the Holiday Train Show, an annual tradition for my family.

It’s so sad to see this. I hope that the trees that were damaged can be nursed back. I hate seeing these cut down.
