Friends engages our community in enhancing our city’s parks, trees, and green spaces through volunteerism, park activation, philanthropy, and urban forestry.
Every area of our work increases access to nature while empowering Grand Rapids residents to shape their green spaces.
Join us for community events, hands-on classes, ArborFest, and Neighborwoods — there’s always something happening to bring New Castle together.
We’re looking for volunteers to join us on October 28th to help clean up Greenwood Cemetery. Select ‘Register Now’ to sign up for a shift!
