Jefferson Park Forward, working in partnership with Alderman John Arena and Representative Robert Martwick’s offices, continued its effort to enhance the beauty of Jefferson Park. The latest investment in beautifying Jefferson Park involved landscaping the southeast corner of Lawrence and Milwaukee Avenues, near the public art installation in front of the CVS store.
Landscaping this area will add a welcoming vibe to residents, people passing through and those visit, work or live in our neighborhood. This investment in our community is organized by JPF as a pure volunteer and donation effort; plants were donated by Representative Robert Martwick, Alderman John Arena, and numerous JPF members. Mulch was donated by Medina Landscaping. JPF volunteers planted this corner on the weekend of August 27-28.
Jefferson Park Forward wants to give special thanks not only to the donations and volunteers, but to the investment by CVS to fixing and maintaining their sprinkler system so these plants will have a long life, year after year. Our goal is to make people smile and help make Jefferson Park more attractive for all.
