HOW CAN I BECOME A PLANTING PARTNER?
Planting partners commit to finding a site, welcoming volunteers, and funding the bulbs to create a daffodil garden. Your daffodils will beautify the community and bring awareness to the journey of cancer survivorship.
1) SELECT YOUR PLANTING SITE
Let us know if you have a sunny planting site that would like to be part of our program such as house of worship, neighborhood (HOA), school, senior residence, business, etc.
Your 1,000 bulbs will need a mostly sunny site of at least 200 square feet which is approximately the size of a large parking space.
2) SET YOUR DATES
