🌧🌳 Rain or shine, we BLOOM together!

Our Knox County Parks and Recreation BLOOM team (Beautifying Local Outdoor spaces withOut Mowing) braved the rain yesterday to plant new trees at Hardwick Park!

Even with the downpour, so many helping hands showed up to dig in, get muddy, and make quick work of this project. 💪🌱

Big thanks to everyone who helped us grow a greener, more beautiful Knox County — one tree at a time! 🌿💚
