The Baldwin Civic Association rallied the troops on a rainy May 5 for flower planting along Grand Avenue. The event was tied to a civic activism holiday called Join Hands Day and saw a contingent of kids getting their hands dirty to beautify a series of planters that BCA co-president Linda Degen said, “ran right through Baldwin.” The green-thumbed youths planted an estimated 10 flats of Marigolds in accordance with Baldwin’s designation as “Marigold City.” Some of the flowers were provided by the Town of Hempstead and others were donated by residents and local businesses.
