Sustaining Brooklyn’s Forest

This Earth Day, we are grateful for Con Edison’s support of Brooklyn’s last remaining forest. The Alliance’s staff of eco-gardeners, arborists and forest ecologists sustain nearly 350 acres of natural areas across Brooklyn’s Backyard.

Con Edison’s support made possible a recent planting of 350 native trees and shrubs to strengthen the park’s ecosystem and ensure it thrives for generations to come. In this video, Prospect Park Alliance’s Director of Landscape Management Leila Mougoui Bakhtiari talks about the work Con Edison makes possible.
