Volunteer Spotlight
A heartfelt THANK YOU to all our volunteers!
Friends of Brightwood Park is a grass roots volunteer organization on a mission to restore the park and to educate about the environmental benefits of biodiversity. The work we do would not be possible but for the generous contributions of time and talents by our many volunteers. In appreciation, we offer a spotlight on volunteers in the park.

This edition: Bianca Wright
Bianca Wright has volunteered her time and talents to restore Brightwood Park for the past 4 years. A landscape architect, she has shared her expertise and knowledge on a variety of issues in the park. She has guided FOBP on the repopulation of native plants in the park, planned and executed our pollinator gardens, researched erosion solutions, and worked with Rutgers extension on protection of saplings and other high value plants. She has tirelessly weeded, seeded, and watered. Significantly, she has led environmental tours and taught native plant gardening to promote a healthy environment both in and outside of the park's borders. With heartfelt thanks, we salute Bianca's dedication to Westfield's nature preserve and beyond. |
