6000 Red Tulips To Be Planted On State Street!

October 13th, 2009 · No Comments

Red Tulip--Bastogne Triumph Bulb6000 Red Tulips will be planted the last week in October between the 700-300 blocks of State Street. This project is being organized by the State Street Fellowship–a group of organizations and community members who have come with the express purpose of betting these four blocks and to learn how to better work together. In conjunction with groups of volunteers from Campbell Soup.

An informational gathering was held this past Saturday at the future home of the Hopeworks C.R.I.B. and over 50 people were present, expressing interest in the bulbs, having their front porches painted, adding weather stripping to their front doors and helping with some painting of the 8 abandoned homes on the block.

Keep watching! Can you imagine what these four blocks will look like in April when 6000 red bulbs shoot forth?!!!!

Here are some pictures from our Saturday gathering:
