Please help UFA & FACA beautify Franklin Park and protect our urban forest!

The Franklin Park Old Dominion & Park Ave Entrance Restoration Project has received preliminary grant approval for $5200 from the Virginia Department of Forestry. This is in addition to the over $500 that individual UFA members have already contributed to creating a landscape design that is beautiful, low maintenance and supportive of our native plant and wildlife species.

See photos of the before and planned after here [Entryway Restoration]. We are seeking to raise at least $5200 in matching donations required to unlock these funds + $10,000 more to implement the landscaping design pictured and clean up the entire area to Valleywood, which is not covered by grant funds.

We can easily get there if 15% of households in Franklin Park contribute just $100. This project is sponsored by the Urban Forest Alliance of Franklin Park and the Franklin Area Citizens Association. Thanks for your support! Reach out to us to get involved in other ways. ufa.mclean@gmail.com.
