More than 100 groups participate in sixth annual East Side Garden Walk

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — More than 100 groups brought out their best green thumbs for the sixth annual East Side Garden Walk this weekend.

Some of the parkway’s gardens have received Lunenfeld Beautification Grants, a Garden Walk Buffalo grant program for city nonprofits.

One of the places that received the grant is Corpus Christi Church on Clark Street, where volunteers transformed their gardens in a matter of months to prepare for the event.

“I really encourage people to come and check it out,” said Liz Riser, garden coordinator at Corpus Christi Church. “Our gardens on the east side are not as compact as the west side, but there are still a lot of beautiful gardens here and a lot of people who really put a lot of time and effort into helping make it a nice little oasis in the city.”

Niagara’s largest event, Garden Walk Buffalo, will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on July 27 and 28.
